    Spider Player
    Media Player Classic-Videos watched using this
    iTunes- need this for syncing Ipod Touch
    MediaMonkey- Works as media manager, good for updating missing music file info[tags bascially]

    That's a big list Raghav.

    It's true that Media Monkey is a good media manager. But, to auto-tag missing info, try Winamp. It has Gracenote song recognition technology which is amazing and 90% of the time it correctly identifies the song (Especially English songs... forget about local films). I'm sure, audiophiles like you will love it.

    Most of the time, Gracenote in WinAmp works quite well... BUT... I listen to a lot of techno, mainly trance... and that's not all that popular and as a result about a third of the time or more, Gracenote does not or cannot tag the song correctly.

    I've tried other programs to do auto-tagging, but still am not satisfied. I'm interested in finding one that utilizes the FreeDB database.

    Right now, if Winamp doesn't tag it, then I have to open up Magix MP3 Maker... and, man is it bloated.

    Anyone have suggestions?

    Jelson, I know many players that use FreeDB to find CD info, but to tag audio files I never found a media player that does like that. But Google told me that you can auto-tag files using FreeDB by using (via )
