Anyone use this? It's an application that "piggybacks"off iTunes/WMP that automatically sorts your music collection out. I bought a 1 year license and so far so good:thumbs: Works pretty well. I've sorted about 500 songs in the past hour and I would say it's about 99% accurate. There were only about 5 or 6 songs that it didn't identify properly. I'm not sure how it will perform with huge collections, but I've been doing about 100-200 songs at a time and it works perfectly:thumbs: Will use it a bit more and then report back, but so far I'm very impressed:joy:

This program is amazing!
This is before (random selection of songs with no names):

And this is after:

Sorted about 70 songs less than 5 minutes

i am quite interested to get this.., although most of my music is labelled, i dont have the albums covers and genre information

I need to look at this.

Noticed that it's a little buggy at times. It froze once or twice while changing the metadata, but closing the program and reopening solves it:thumbs: You can try the trial version, but it's limited to 50 songs i think.

Strange... There was a software update released just a few days ago. Surely they would have to keep the service running for at least a year for those of us who purchased 1 year licences... I have not seen or heard of an alternative to this program either...

Can't find a way to download it either.... Found another program that fixes the tags only and another that uses the tags to create the file name.

I see their website now states under new management and the website and new software will be up and running shortly. My TuneUp is now in Trial mode and keeps asking for the activation code, but I can't seem to find it:bangdesk: The forgot activation feature doesn't work either as it links to their website and the site is down. Hopefully they'll be back soon...

i saw that as well, i meant to update the post. I hope it does as the other options i am using does not like to do more than 100 or so songs at a time and doesnt like selecting files, just folders. I seem to have alot of large folders...

Plus i noticed it uses information found on the track itself so if the ID3 tags are way off, it will recommend incorrect info.

good news, the previous version is available and they are basically recalling the new version.

You can get your activation code as well.

I was just about to post here:biglol: Got my activation code and its up and running again:joy: They running a 30% discount promo at the moment

Am trying the trial for now, but i dont have the option to send to tuneup....?

 

[Bavs108]

What do you mean send to tuneup? It detects the songs that you have in iTunes and fixes them.

Busy downloading version 2.4.8. Not quite sure what version I have, but mine is a bit buggy so I assume its v3

 

[sash]

aha, in my case it uses Windows Media Player, and thats where the send to option comes in.
