mp3scrub

Label and organize your music collection by getting missing tags from online sources using this simple and portable software tool

mp3scrub is a feather-light and portable piece of kit that can automatically identify and label your music collection with the help of various online services, such musicbrainz and last.fm, as well as open-source audio tools, like ffmpeg.

Portability perks

Since there is no installation involved, you can extract the program files to any part of the disk and just click the executable to launch mp3scrub. There is also the possibility to save it to a pen drive to directly run it on any PC effortlessly. It doesn't add new entries to the Windows registry.

Straightforward interface and options

Made from a large window with a neatly organized structure, the interface shows the original and clean artist, album, track and track number, along with the path methods and changed fields for each audio track.

These can be imported from MP3 files and later exported. You can search for tags online, clean and update them, filter files shown in the list, as well as create new directories to organize the tracks.

Evaluation and conclusion

We haven't come across any stability issues throughout our evaluation, thanks to the fact that the program didn't hang, crash or show error dialogs. It had a good response time and minimal impact on computer performance, using low CPU and RAM.

All in all, mp3scrub facilitates a simple and effective method for administering your song collection by getting missing tags from online sources automatically. On the other hand, it hasn't been updated for a long time, so it might have some compatibility issues with later Windows editions.
