Basically, I've found that each one offers some of the functionality I
want, but not all of it, so I end up using about 3, and the command
line. E.g.:
exfalso: - cddb lookup isn't great. it doesn't seem as successful at
finding CDs as other tag editors.
- it doesn't cope well if another program updates the tags in a file,
it just seems to ignore them
- it has a habit of asking if I'm sure I want to make changes for
*every* song I update.
easytag: - I can't find out how to get it to work with multiple artists
and genres.
- I don't think it works with custom tags.
Also neither of them work brilliantly when I have an album in two
formats in a directory.
(If I'm wrong about any of that, then please let me know.)
Don't think I've tried picard, so I'll give that a go.
My ideal tag editor (and music player) would be foobar (for windows).
It's about the one bit of software I haven't found a similar replacement
for in Linux (in my opinion). Although gmusicbrowser comes close.
