    Editing Song info in MP3 and other audio file formats?

    How can I edit the song info found in MP3 files and other audio file formats in Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit other then using Rhythmbox?

    It's a pain to use Rhythmbox to edit the artist, album, year, Genre and other info of each song because you have to find the song by it name and then change the info. There is no way to put it in a view as folder or drive name or partition so you can simply go to where the files them selves are on the drive and edit mutiple files at the same time without having to search for each song individuly.

    In XP all you need to do is right click and select properties and then edit the info there but in Linux all you can do is view the info under properties.

    I use Cowbell Music Organiser - it allows you to edit the properties of songs an album at a time using an interface very similar to most CD ripping programs.

    Easytag has always worked great for me.

    Thanks, that did the trick!

    Cowbell is easier to use but Easytag has more features and file info.
