iTunes-Multi-Genre-Tagger

ITunes-Multi-Genre-Tagger is a project mainly written in Ruby, it's free.

Put Last.FM in your ID3 tags, find music by similarity

iTunes Multi-Genre Tagger adds descriptive metadata to your music. These descriptive tags are gathered from the Last.FM API (no user account necessary) and then written into the ‘Grouping’ field of your music file(s).

And wherefore? To break old habits. With the ‘Grouping’ column displayed in iTunes, this enables you to filter music by multiple categories, even very specific ones (i.e. "90s argentina indie") from within the iTunes search feature. In this way you’ll find music you’d otherwise not think to listen to.

Dependencies: rb-appscript (gem install rb-appscript)
