This is a list of applications that have MusicBrainz support built in:

Today’s Little Program edits the metadata of an audio file, ostensibly to correct a spelling error, but really just to show how it’s done. Today’s smart pointer class library is (rolls dice) CComPtr! We open with two helper functions which encapsulate the patterns Get property from property store Call IPropertyStore::GetValue Convert PROPVARIANT into desired final type Destroy. Meta – Music Tag Editor, Audio Metadata 1.4 KeyShot PRO 9.1.98 Crack Enpass Password Manager 5.6.3 4k Video Downloader 3.4.6.155 Outline –your Digital Notebook 3.21.2 AnyMP4 Data Recovery 1.1.6 Stardew Valley V1.4.4 (2016) Antidote (French Software) 8 V5.2 Forecast Bar SigPro 2.1 Carousel 1.5.1.

This module tries to make retrieving audio fingerprints and metadata for unknown audio files as easy as possible. It interfaces with the modules Audio::Ofa and WebService::MusicBrainz, provides a simple LWP based interface to the MusicDNS library, and can make use of Audio::Extract::PCM to read some popular music formats.
TagScanner is a free batch mp3 tag editor software for Windows. Using this software, you can easily add or modify metadata of multiple MP3 files at a time. Apart from with MP3, you can also edit metadata of OGG, FLAC, WMA, Opus, Speex, AIFF, WAV, etc.
I’m looking for a program that will let me bulk rename audiobook files and then embed metadata for Plex. I have these books that are 100+ tracks and not being found in the MusicBrainz DB. Likely this is because of track/disk merging at one point. I’ve been forced to use iTunes to add metadata to things and it’s not ideal.
