anyone use it?

MusicBrainz is a community music metadatabase that attempts to create a comprehensive music information site.
i've been using it to go through all my music (100+GB). it's taking forever, but it'll be so nice to have a properly tagged music collection.

this is the actual program you use: http://musicbrainz.org/doc/PicardDownload

what if you downloaded it with wrong tags? or without tags at all. this can scan the file and if someone else has scanned it at some point, can match it up.

as long as it matches up with something that's already been scanned.

not all the songs i tried matching that way got found, but some did which was a big help.
