About MusicBrainz Picard

Do you need to clean up your music library? Picard is an open-source

cross-platform music tagger by MusicBrainz. It has the ability to

identify audio files even without any existing metadata.

Picard helps you organize your music collection by renaming your music

files and sorting them into a folder structure exactly the way you want

it. A variety of plugins are available and you can even write your own.

Picard supports a wide range of audio formats and can also lookup an

entire CD for you.

Tagging audio files has never been easier.

Features:

Multiple formats: Picard supports all popular music formats,

including MP3, FLAC, OGG, M4A, WMA, WAV, and more.

AcoustID: Picard uses AcoustID audio fingerprints, allowing files

to be identified by the actual music, even if they have no metadata.

Comprehensive database: Picard uses the open and

community-maintained MusicBrainz database to provide accurate

information about millions of music releases.

CD lookups: Picard can lookup entire music CDs with a click.

Plugin support: If you need a particular feature, you can choose
