easy free MP3 tagging software?

I was only doing 600 tracks or so. Can it be used to do album art separately? None or very little of mine have it.

musicbrainz can do it, but you'll need to download the QTalbumart plugin.

Musicbrainz didn't do anything for me, it just froze up. I prefer to do it myself with tag tools.

Do you mean if froze up, or do you mean you had no idea how to use it and it didn't do anything because it was waiting for you to do something.

I've never had any of them freeze up. classic is easier to use. Picard is very easy once you realise how to use it.

It froze up, had to end it with task manager in the end.

Which ones do you recommend to embed image art directly into a single mp3 file? (NOT FOLDER).

ALso will it come up on my ipod?

For crying out loud.

MusicBrainz

Jesus wept.

Just make sure you have the album art plugin.

You didn't mention using your own images in your original post. MB won't do that, i don't know of anything automated myself that will either. Why do you want to use your own images? Instead of the ones saved on amazon?

I want to use my own images, since I've ripped all my vinyl to mp3 and want to be able to see the cover of that vinly on my mp3 player.

Mp3tag will do it.

MusicBrainz is slightly confusing. :/

Anyone want to write a quick guide to tagging with the album art plugin?
