Download MusicBrainz Picard: Free Alternative for TuneUp

MusicBrainz Picard is a free alternative to Tuneup. MusicBrainz Picard is a free software that can automatically add ID3 tags to music files by referring it against its own music database. So, if you have music that does not have correct name, album, or artist information, MusicBrainz Picard can quickly fill that information for you very easily.

Tuneup is a popular software that integrates with iTunes, and automatically finds ID3 tags for your songs. The application is quite good, but it not free. So, I started looking for a free alternative for Tuneup, and came across MusicBrainz Picard. I really like it.

MusicBrainz Picard has a database of virtually all the songs in the world. When you pass your song to MusicBrainz Picard, it compares it with its database, and is able to find the relevant information. This helps you to organize your music library.

It is very easy to use MusicBrainz Picard.  Here is a small video tutorial that explains how to use MusicBrainz Picard to add missing album and artist information to your music files.

You just install MusicBrainz Picard on your computer. Then, select the folder that contains untagged songs, and MusicBrainz Picard will search for information about all those songs in one go. And, it is able to get all the info very quickly.

MusicBrainz Picard gives you an opportunity to see the information that MusicBrainz Picard has found for your songs. You can edit that further if you like, or go with MusicBrainz Picard’s selections (that’s what I would do).

After that, MusicBrainz Picard will directly store that information with your original music files itself. So, in just a few clicks, you are able to permanently fix file name, and add album, artist, and other information to your songs. All for Free.

Another similar software that you can try is SoundMaven.

I really like MusicBrainz Picard for its ease of use, its comprehensive database, and the accuracy of its results. This is one application that all music lovers should possess.
