Tag music with name and artist

Thanks to freemacware.com I've been finding some great utilities. Some run in Linux and windows.

One can easily have items in the iTunes library labeled “Unknown Artist” or “Untitled 1″. Sometimes this happens because the music was grabbed from P2P networks and wasn’t tagged correctly, or a CD was imported when there was no internet connection to grab the titles, artists, genre, etc. or radio was recorded.

iEatBrainz is the answer. It is an acoustic music tagger — it takes an acoustic fingerprint of each song and matches it against information from MusicBrainz.org. It is available from Jay Tuley.
