iTunes Last.FM Tagger with Automatic Mode

I just finished adding an automatic option for the itunes tagger. This means that the program will no longer overwrite any existing data unless the "Only check for missing data" option is disabled (in which case everything will be replaced). I also increased the delay between requests to last.fm. The web service provided by Last.fm will ban your IP address if more than 1 query is sent each second. This would be a very bad thing to happen, so I've set the program to only query every 2 seconds. As such, for each song you search in automatic mode, the program will require about 2.5 seconds (ie. 100 songs = 4.2 minutes).

  1. Thanks, this is fantastic, exactly what I’ve been looking for.!!!
    I’ve just been trying out the automatic [beta] mode and it seems to work perfectly… amazingly this program even fixed some artist/album tags that MusicIP Mixer selected incorrectly.

    Thankyou!

  2. Seems like a great program. Mac support would be a dream!

  3. Hey, glad you guys like the program. Jedi, here’s a link to something similar in the form of an applescript. I don’t have a mac to test it on, but it looks like a start…
