Have you ever wanted to have a clean iTunes library? One where artists names, song titles, music genres are the right ones, which makes it easy for you to navigate your music library? One where you have album covers, and great ones, for all your songs, at last!Would you rather a program that does it automatically or have it do it manually?
I bet you'd rather a program doing it automatically, because it would save you a lot of time. It would allow you not to go all over the internet to find the information you are looking for about the songs that you have and that are not labeled properly, and having to drag and drop every new piece of info you can gather or retype it into your iTunes library.
If you have done research on the internet and looked up information online, you may have heard about Tidysongs. Tidysongs is a software that does the iTunes cleanup for you.
Much has been said about Tidysongs and how it actually works. As a long-term user, here what I think you need to know about the program, because it will help you make the most of it, and decide whether you need it or not.
How to use Tidysongs?
Once you have downloaded Tidysongs and when you open it up, the main menu window pops up and offers you 4 choices:
find duplicates
add album artwork
fix your songs
organize genres
If you go to "options", you can see there are actually several features you can choose to include in the cleanup, like song titles, artists names, album covers, year and genres.
Additionally, for each cleaning up option, you may either choose to perform the work manually or to have it done automatically. The point of doing it manually is that it allows you remain in full control while still being able to customize it. That's a great thing to do when you have super edgy music that no one about yet! And it still saves you a tremendous amount of time, compared to what you would have to do if you typed everything manually.
