Nice feature in Windows Media Player

[Easy Mac]

I was busy ripping my CD's to my computer so I can have all my songs on there. I decided to take a break from that and work on getting the right info for my MP3's already on my computer.

I ended up right clicking on a file in Windows Media Player 10, and I noticed a feature called "Find Album". I clicked it and it searched window's cd service. Then it displayed what it thought was the correct CD's, with all the info listed. All I had to do was click on the listing, and it automatically fixed all the info for me. Now I can play it in whatever player, and the ID tags will be done, with minimal work for me. It sometimes has trouble finding the right stuff, but it just takes a few more searches to find the right listing.

This is a very useful feature for people who are as anal as me about seeing all the right info, and for those of us who didn't purchase all of our music and are relying on other people putting in the right info for us.

That is a nice feature from Windows. Have you had it display the incorrect info yet?

I had problems with version 10 because it ran a program that constantly checked for updates while sucking up memory. I disabled the program in version 10 then uninstalled the whole thing a few days later.

I disabled the part that runs in the background. I'm just doing it manually right now, so I'm getting to check and make sure I pick the correct info.
