## I have tonnes of MP3 files that I wish to add lyrics to (not downloaded, just plain old text files (UTF-8 to be exact). The story goes like this: I have an MP3 file named GEN1.mp3 and a text file named GEN1.txt. I would like to import the text file into the lyrics tag of the corrosponding MP3 file. The same would go for: GEN2.mp3 - GEN2.txt GEN3.mp3 - GEN3.txt GEN4.mp3 - GEN4.txt

GEN\_50.mp3 - GEN\_50.txt  
and so on...  
The highest number would be 176 ie: GEN176.mp3 - GEN176.txt if this helps/means anything.

Is there any way of doing this using MP3TAG?

Thanks in advance.
