Not sure what the advantage is with Musicbrainz. Is it really needed? I use dbpoweramp and then customize with mp3tag. Curious as what Musicbrainz does for you?

In short ? Everything. Just run your files thru picard, it will recognise the music, save, that's it.

recognize the music? But if one has already ripped with a good ripper (e.g., dbpa) with good metadata and album art, what would be the added benefit. It sounds like you are saying if you have a bunch of music files and you are not sure what the artist, album, title, etc. happens to be that picard will discover this (from music fingerprinting or something) and fill this info in for you.

Some advantages:
- The Music Brains tags are of quite higher quality than other sources that don't have their review process (which can be annoyingly stringent).
- They are consistent in capitalisaiton, artist names etc.
- They explicitly track different releases of the same album.
- They often have extra data on the cds and tracks.
- Adding the MBIDs to tracks make keeping track of trackstat data from erland safer if you move files.
- Tracks can be recognised from audio fingerprinting tech or via the original CD.Louis
