How can I lookup titles and artists for tracks that have no information associated with them?
If you ripped a lot of songs while you were offline or simply before CDDB was used, your tracks may have meaningless titles like 01-Track.mp3. beaTunes lets you fix this. Analyze these songs with the Import metadata from MusicIP.com option (Internet connection required). Choose carefully how the new data should be imported, to make sure that you don’t accidently loose any of your existing data. If you don’t trust the automatic process you can choose Don’t import song info, just look up PUID. After completion of the analysis, open the Get Info dialog on one of the tracks. beaTunes will now try to obtain information about the song and underline any existing data that it thinks is wrong. Depending on your OS, Right- or Control-click on the underlined item and beaTunes will suggest one or more alternatives. To find out even more about a particular song using MusicBrainz, Amazon or discogs, you may also want to use the Open in… feature.
