How do you manage/tag your music? If you use any great auto-tagger programs, please suggest them!

I tried using the Winamp auto-tag feature but it just fucked up my playlist with incorrect song names or replaced an existing tag with one that had less information. I want to be able to review (hopefully not in a painstaking song-by-song fashion - I have over 1200 songs in my playlist...) the auto-tagger's changes, or at least be able to trust it will do a good job of automating the whole process.

I have points to offer for helpful responses.

However, it works. The Zune software will let you search for the song (normally finds it based on whatever data is already there, including filename. If it cant, you can still enter your own search criteria) then it will allow you to verify all the information selected is correct.

Works really good. Ive never had it screw up my playlists, or my autolists (both of which have entries above 500 songs per list). Of course, I manage everything with the Zune software, so that may be part of why it all works so well together.

Im not entirely sure how well it would work going back and forth between Zune, iTunes, and Winamp, although, it used to work pretty good going between Zune and Winamp for me.

Every time I download a song, I fill out all of the tagging myself, because I myself am a perfectionist and I want all of my music to be tagged properly.

But I remember I had a software music thingy that offered to import id3 tags from a file, and all you had to get was get a trustworthy file. That way, once you found a database that had the appropriate level of detail for you, you were done. I think that now it's all handled automatically though an online database like when you tried, though... you get no choice!
