You may also choose to do a “full” installation, as the difference in hard-drive footprint is less than one megabyte. It is important to ensure that you have the “freedb” add-on selected during installation.

If you have not already, download the application from the foobar2000 website, and follow the on-screen prompts to install. To begin, you will firstly need to ensure that you have installed foobar2000 on your computer. Combined with the “ freedb” add-in (installed with a “full” foobar2000 installation), foobar2000 can automatically tag your MP3 collection, saving you a boatload of time, and eliminating the need for an additional program to be installed on your computer. The tool which we will use for this process may be familiar to a lot of you, as Jeff has previously reviewed foobar2000 and proclaimed it to be an excellent music player and library manager. However, there’s a much easier way to tag your MP3 collection automatically be it one song or an entire library. Sure, you could manually re-tag the CD using a simple program such as iTunes, but doing so would be a very repetitive process, take a tremendous amount of time, and involve a relatively high risk of human error. This is caused when the CD your ripped does not contain ID3 meta-data the information that stores all of the song, album, and artist information. Upon closer inspection, you find that not only are the tracks not accurate, but neither is the artist or album name. You successfully rip an audio CD (or download music online) only to find that instead of actual song names, the tracks are called “Track 1″, “Track 2″, etc.
