musicbrainz alternative?

General Discussion
1

florian, have you considered using musicbrainz as an alternative to allmusic, amazon, etc? i think it's second only to allmusic for tagging. the only things i think mp3tag needs is....

  1. an internet lookup service other than freedb, such as musicbrainz
  2. color coded files, like some other tagging programs offer

i have tried a lot of taggers the past week and mp3tag has the simplest, no bull interface. i would love to see allmusic or musicbrainz support so that i can do away with the limited musicbrainz tagger.

again thanks for this great piece of software florian.

I'll definitely have a look at the MusicBrainz service.

great news!

For some reason MusicBrainz can't identify a track if it doesn't know the track length, and for some reason it can't obtain the track length for half of my MP3s.

Sorry, but these are the Mp3tag Forums.

If Mp3tag can read the length of your files, it's possibly a bug in the MusicBrainz tagger. If Mp3tag displays the wrong length, it's possibly a free-format MP3.
