Anyone searching for a music metadata inspection and modification tool to manage their audio files
About beets
Beets is the media library management system for obsessive music geeks, an infinitely flexible automatic metadata corrector and file renamer, and a batch audio file transcoder. Beets is a simple music metadata inspection and modification tool for tons of audio file types, and an MPD-compatible music player. The purpose of beets is to get your music collection right once and for all. It catalogs your collection, automatically improving its metadata as it goes using the MusicBrainz database. Then it provides a bouquet of tools for manipulating and accessing your music. Because beets are designed as a library, they can do almost anything you can imagine for your music collection. Via plugins, beets become a panacea. Fetch or calculate all the metadata you could possibly need: album art, lyrics, genres, tempos, ReplayGain levels, or acoustic fingerprints. Get metadata from MusicBrainz, Discogs, or Beatport. Or guess metadata using songs’ filenames or their acoustic fingerprints.

A flexible but easy-to-learn scripting language allows you to exactly specify how your music files will be named and how the tags will look like. If you need a particular feature, you can choose from a selection of available plugins or write your own.
