But it's editing extremely limited. You can only change some prescribed
tags, some of them (like title and tracknumber) can only be changed on
single files, and when you delete the contents of a tag, the file gets an
empty tag instead of the tag being deleted.
And AmaroK tends to slow down when working with large playlists.
I'd second the WINE/Foobar2000 option. Besides excellent basic options, it
allows automatic editing based on filenames, copying tags from other
files, renaming files based on tags etc. In fact, Foobar2000 is the only
program I miss since switching to Ubuntu. :-)
