The problem with the really good ones like that are they're so slooooooooow. I've built up a collection of 60 Gig here (although admittedly a lot of that is audio books). Even just running volume leveling over the lot takes four or five hours. ;^) And they still want you to verify everything anyway. I generally let WMP set up the initial tags (especially when ripping a disc), then I modify the genre and add my own album art. It doesn't take much time when you do it as you collect music but when you let it go for a year you need to spend a weekend fixing things up again.
