I downloaded a bunch of YT channels via JDownloader where the comments are quite important. I want to import all the description txt files into their respective AAC/OGG file. The filenames are 90% the same. For example:  
`Sawallisch Mozart 41 (192kbps_AAC).m4a`  
`Sawallisch Mozart 41 (Description).txt`

Meaning that each file's name is the same which is appended by the bitrate information or Description. If I were to use regex I would just exclude the last instance of brackets to match an audio file with its description text files.

Is there a way to do import comments into 1000s of audio files?

There is an action "Import text file":

> **[Import Text File – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/actions/import-text/)**
>
> Documentation on the Import Text File action type that can be performed as Quick Action or as reusable workflow from Action Groups. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.
