Pollux: give your iTunes library in order

I do not know about you, but I have a library of iTunes - is the most beautiful and orderly place on the Mac. So, almost every track spelled out all the tags, album cover is exposed, there is a lyrics... Although all this, I got through a lot of effort. However, less lyrical, more business!

Previously, such a result I sought using several programs and by various tricks: Cover searched the web itself, if some of them were not in the iTunes Store; tags set manually, lyrics sought by a beautiful GimmeSomeTune. In general, it's all difficult. Then I learned about TuneUpWhich performs all the operations (except search lyrics) and cost $ 30. Pay for an incomplete set of tools for a task I do not like, so he did not.

And now, to the delight of the entire community of music fans, diligent and zealous makovodov, left the program Pollux. This wonderful tool is able to put down all the tags (song title, album, year of release of the album, artist), as well as searches for and automatically adds album art and lyrics. track title and artist is even when the audio file does not contain tags and called, for example, «Track # 1.mp3». Among other things, Pollux has a fairly easy interface: When you start a program icon appears in the menu bar in the form of an image of some notes on the background of a vinyl record. And yet :)

Just when you want to update the information on the track or multiple tracks in your iTunes-library, you have to select them and then click on the icon Pollux in the menu bar and select Tag Selected iTunes Tracks. After that, the translucent window that appears you can monitor the status of ongoing updates.

Also in the menu you will notice Pollux Preferences link that opens a Setup. They are simple and concise: You can specify which tags should upgrade, whether you want to search for and / or rewrite CD covers, whether to look for the lyrics. Even in the settings you can enable or disable auto-tagging new tracks.

Lastly I want to say that the author of these lines in Pollux did not find a single flaw. And to the delight of users - the program is completely free, although the author of the program can be as a "thank you" to send a dollar or more. Download the latest version of the program on official website.
