    I have quite a lot of audio files without any metadata. For mp3 albums for me is best mp3tag or tag&rename. They unfortutately doesn't work with these mp3s. Is there anything to add id3 to unknown files or to your own compilations? Winamp, who is already out, was quite good for that at the time.
    Thanks for any advice

    not that i have a lot of experience with these sorts of programs....
    my preference is to have all relevant information about an mp3 included in the file name. just easier for me.
    if your mp3 files also have the relevant info in the file name, like album, track number, song title, etc....
    it might be just a matter of finding a program that takes the consistently named files and using that info to fill in the id3 metadata.
    i've never looked for such a program, but one might exist.
    good luck with it.

    You can try Musicbrainz Picard. While mine are tagged already, I've played around with it and it seemed to do a decent job.
