I know this maybe old news but I've just discovered an amazing little
feature in Winamp 5.5 called 'autotag'

It's similar to the 'look up' facility as in other music software when
ripping a CD but it goes one better. If you had a load of ripped
mp3s with to tags, it will put them in for you saving hours and hours of
typing.

I had a small collection (about 3000) of songs ripped on my laptop when I
had no Internet connection available. Of course, when I played them,
it came up as 'track 1' track 2, track 3 etc (you know the score)
Here's what ya do to tag them:

Select your (multiple!!) mp3s and right click them. Select Enqueue in
Winamp.
Once enqueued, select FILE/SELECT ALL so all mp3s are highlighted.
Then RIGHT CLICK a song in the playlist and select AUTOTAG.

Obviously you must have an Internet connection, then WInamp goes off and
puts all info in for you.
Simply fantastic!

Although very reliable, it is advisable to check each track.

You can edit what winamp reads from there

I've had a few songs that show a definate file size in 'properties' but when
loaded into Winamp show ZERO Mb and do not play.

It appears that these songs have only the 'simple' tag enabled and I can't
easily edit it
