TuneUp – Fix your iTunes and more
TuneUp is a great little application that’s used as an add-on to iTunes. Anybody with a decent sized music library should own it. Here’s what it does-
1. Cleans up songs in your library that don’t have album names included. Most it will automatically fix for you. I have a large chunk of MP3’s ripped from my collection of obscure electronic vinyl, most of which it couldn’t find albums for.
2. Fixes missing cover art. I have an Apple TV in my living room that I play music from. Having blank albums show up on the screen all the time got a little annoying, TuneUp took care of that.
3. Access the Tuniverse. Shows links to videos, band bio, auctions on eBay and more. Also shows recommendations for other songs or albums that you might like, but gives links to Amazon for MP3 purchases.
4. Concerts. This by far is the single best feature of TuneUp. Get a list of all the concerts in your area based on the artists in your library. With over 10,000 songs in my library, it gives me a pretty extensive list of shows. A recommendation for an added feature would be similar or recommended concerts.
Overall TuneUp is a decent app. I’ve had some issues with crashing during tagging of large amounts of songs and albums, but other than that it’s been solid. Cost – $29.

It’s a great little tool. I bought it and love it. Unfortunately only AFTER I did so did I found out it’s crippled with drm. Install the “lifetime” license twice and you’re screwed. Better hope you only have 2 computers in your lifetime.
I hate it when a company screws the customer in the name of “anti-piracy”.
I Currently Use Tuneup and i love it! I have a huge music collection and it would have taken weeks to clean it. So i decided to buy the gold lifetime subscription. It has already paid for itself in time saving. I used this code for 15% off StribletTuni026
