Music
The music player for music lovers.
In the transition from physical to digital media, something has been lost. We have more convenience than ever, but no feeling of excitement or engagement.
Roon looks at your music and finds photos, bios, reviews, lyrics, and concert dates, and makes connections between artists, composers, performers, conductors, and producers.
What you get is a searchable, surfable magazine about your music.
Music lovers have content from many sources, often acquired over years of collecting. Roon identifies your music, then enhances it with the latest metadata.
Music lovers have all kinds of audio equipment for different kinds of listening. Roon detects these devices and streams the optimal audio resolution to each.
Enjoy your music instead of managing your audio equipment.

Music Tag is a powerful and easy to use program that automatically downloads track data and cover art to complete your music library. Modern music players like iTunes or Windows Media Player use data embedded into files to identify tracks. If this data is missing, no track information is shown. Music Tag uses an advanced digital fingerprinting technology to accurately identify the song and proceeds to download the track info and Cover Art. The software can recognize over 35 Million individual songs, with new songs being continuously added to the database. Perfect for anyone who possesses a music collection, this tool will not only allow you to fill in the blanks, but it also allows you to edit the track data inside your files, so you can personalize your data. Music Tag is compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8, and it requires an active internet connection to download missing data. The software is available as a free trial download, allowing one file to be saved at a time. Batch saving mode is supported in the full version of Music Tag, which also gives benefit of lifetime free updates of the software.
Picard is the next generation MusicBrainz tagging application. This new tagging concept is album oriented, as opposed to track/file oriented like the ClassicTagger was. Picard is written in Python, which is a cross-platform language, and makes use of cross-platform libraries - this allows the same code to run both on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
** The Windows version is free, but the new macOS version costs $20. **
Mp3tag is a powerful and easy-to-use tool to edit metadata of audio files.
It supports batch tag-editing of ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, iTunes MP4, WMA, Vorbis Comments and APE Tags for multiple files at once covering a variety of audio formats.
Furthermore, it supports online database lookups from, e.g., Discogs, MusicBrainz or freedb, allowing you to automatically gather proper tags and download cover art for your music library.
You can rename files based on the tag information, replace characters or words in tags and filenames, import/export tag information, create playlists and more.
Mp3tag is developed for Windows: macOS and Linux systems can also run the application under a compatibility layer, such as Wine.
Manage your music as a library, as playlists or as folders on the file-system. Organize, browse and find music on your computer, on portable devices and on the web. Small or large collections are handled with ease. Have folders watched for new tracks and added to your library, with the option to tag the files from an Inbox beforehand. Also manage and download Podcast subscriptions and listen to your favourite radio stations, including those from Shoutcast, Jamendo and Last.fm.
Tag music easily, with the full complement of IDv2.3 tags available for use and custom tags that can be configured to track other less common types of information. Play MP3, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, WMA and other formats and optionally have those tracks scrobbled to Last.fm. You are not restricted to music files on your computer - you can play video files and streams from the web as well. Playlists are automatically created from MP3 blogs and web pages you visit.
Securely rip tracks from your CD collection as individual files or as a single album file with an embedded cue sheet. You can also have your rips validated against AccurateRip.com for extra assurance. Synchronize music files, podcasts and playlists from your library, or music files from any folder to many portable devices. These include iPods, iTouch/iPhones, MTP devices (most portable devices other than iPods), and USB devices. You can let MusicBee automatically transfer an assortment of your most frequently played tracks or drag and drop files manually to the device yourself.
Convert music files from one format to another without losing tag values; normalize the volume of your files so you don't have to keep adjusting the volume; update missing tags and album artwork from the web; and more.
