iEatBrainz

Version: 1.08 || Release Date: 2008-02-07 || License: Freeware

iEatBrainz is a MusicBrainz client for MacOS X. MusicBrianz is a song/album/artist catalog, that unlike CDDB and friends computes an audio-bound hash for each track, and matches that to the database.

This is very useful for retagging MP3s.

ieatbrainz has almost snuffed it, if you want to use musicbrainz on your mac you need to use either Picard or Jaikoz.

Made a universal binary for anyone interested to use it on an intel:

Seems like MusicBrainz is going to pull the plug on old (TRM-)clients like this one early januari. They cannot use the original music identification service anymore.

Crashes at startup on Leopard. Even looks like rosetta chokes up on it.

I really, really miss an option to browse the musicbrainz database and tag files manually by just clicking an icon, like you could with the old windows client.

The auto recognition often fails and then it's very cumbersome to look up and enter the album and track IDs by hand.

"Too bad it can't rename the mp3s acording to the tags... "

This is done by iTunes itself. Make sure you've got "keep iTunes Music folder organized" turned on. Then it will not only rename files, but also create/rename folders for artists and albums. Not sure you would like iEatBrainz to do this directly as it surely would screw up iTunes.

occasionally faulty--be sure to check your tags before you update, or you'll end up tagging something as Hendrix that just isn't Hendrix.
