Giving credit where credit is due

I'm retagging some of my mp3s, to add album art. Hoping for an iPod Photo at some point in the distant future...

Although I'm not a big fan of the MusicMatch jukebox program, the MusicMatch super tagger is a pretty nifty app for doing bulk tagging, and adding album art. It also looks like they spent some time cleaning up their database since the last time I used it - the genres are much more consistent than they were a couple years ago.

When I first got my 3rd generation 30gb iPod, MusicMatch was the default app for managing the iPod. This was before iTunes came out for windows. It looks like if you want to use the super tagger now, you have to pay. Luckily, the old version that came with the iPod still works, and does have access to the database.

Update - it's annoying that some of the genres don't make sense - Rush is listed as "hard rock" rather than progressive-rock, for instance. In my experience, whenever someone talks about prog-rock, the canonical bands used to describe that genre are usually Rush and Yes. Perhaps MusicMatch will need to revisit that...
