Great app but crashes alot. - Version: 2.0.15, 9/22/2009 04:44PM PST

I thought my 7000+ song collection was well organized but after BeaTunes analyzed my music, I found out how wrong I was. BeaTunes saved me from a lot of painstaking, time consuming tag cleanup. It has been worth the money. However, the program either crashes or freezes almost every time I use it. I haven't lost anything so far and the program restarts where it left off. I still recommend it.
