I need an app that will rename a bunch of files currently named "Track<nn>.mp3" with a scheme I come up with using some of the metadata from the song "tag" or whatever it's called...

Any nice little apps that will do this easily?

I use Media Monkey.

It'll both let you do what you want (rename based on file tags), and also interacts with Amazon.com's CD database to automatically tag files or download album art.

Do you recommend any, smarta$$?

i recommend using the command line



(actually, i fix my tags within iTunes, and have it rename and sort away the tracks in proper Artist/Album/Trackname.format convention for me.)

iTunes is out. Thanks for the recommendation, though.

I likey this program! Worth it!


I need to de-dup my external drive however because I have TOO many backups of songs from my notebook.

I mean I REALLY like Media Monkey. I have been looking for this software since I bough my Ipod.

i use Tag&Rename.

it's not free, but it's excellent. definitely worth the $25 i spent on it.

Ahhh... free is a requirement as well. I only have a handful to do.

foobar will do tagging and renaming, i'm pretty sure.
