Incorrect data.. typos in the 'corrected' id3 data.. wrong artist / album info on a lot of tracks.. incorrect album art.. no comment editor.. and the worst part (besides paying for this POS) there isn't an 'UNDO' option..

If you turn this thing loose on your iTunes library, you better be selective about which files you allow it to do its thing with.. I screwed up and let it have its way with my entire library.. It replaced well over half of my album artwork (from iTunes) and re-wrote a lot of the album info (from iTunes) with bogus entries that only an eleventeen year old could have come up with.

You are better off (and have more control) using the 'get info' selection directly in iTunes than to use this twenty dollar turd..

Re: Completely Worthless - LairWareBeastie

If what you want to do is manually edit your song information, of course you should use iTunes. It's free, and more capable than MPFreaker. MPFreaker's manual editing capabilities are mainly a nicety to fine-tune what it has added automatically.

MPFreaker 1.8 recognizes iTunes-downloaded (unembedded) artwork and will avoid overriding the (often higher quality) iTunes-downloaded artwork. I'm not aware of any other artwork utility that does this.
