Description:
 If you want to easily tag multiple MP3,
Ogg/Vorbis or FLAG files (e.g. full albums)
without typing the same information again and
again and have control over both ID3v1 and ID3v2
tags, then Kid3 is the program you are looking
for.

With Kid3 you can:
- Edit ID3v1.1 tags
- Edit all ID3v2.3 frames
- Convert between ID3v1.1 and ID3v2.3 tags
- Edit Ogg/Vorbis tags
- Edit FLAC tags
- Edit tags of multiple files, e.g. the artist,
album, year and genre of all files of an album
typically have the same values and can be set
together.
- Generate tags from filenames
- Generate filenames from tags
- Rename and create directories from tags
- Generate playlist files
- Automatically convert upper and lower case and
replace strings
- Import from freedb.org, MusicBrainz and other
sources of album data
- Export as CSV, HTML, playlist, Kover XML and
other formats. Exported CSV files can be imported
again.

* Release 0.7
* New:
  + Export dialog can export tags as CSV, HTML,
playlists, Kover XML and other formats. CSV files

  + Custom strings can be used for ID3v2.3,

* Improved:

import.
  + freedb.org import has suggested search string,
search history.
  + Imported tracks can be reordered to match
track number, title or length.
  + Format while editing affects most operations,
is split into separate options for filenames and
tags, menu commands to apply filename format and
tag format.
  + Case conversion is done before string
replacements, so that "case exceptions" can be
corrected.

* Fixed:
  + Remove temporary Ogg file when filename and
tags are changed.
  + Mark file as changed when Ogg genre is
changed.
