Review

You already know that managing the music that you have on your CDs and hard disks is almost impossible without a tag editor. There are quite a few programs that can help you with this, including some of the most popular audio players. But when it comes to specialized tag editors TagScanner might be the one for you.

TagScanner is a powerful multifunction freeware program: it can play your audio files, but that’s not its main purpose. It can generate tag information from filenames, rename files based on the tag information, and you can search for album information via online databases like freedb or Amazon. It also features a playlist maker with the possibility to export your playlist to Excel files or HTML. As for tags, it supports ID3v1, ID3v2, Vorbis comments, APEv2, WindowsMedia and MP4(iTunes) tags.
