Metadata matching using MusicBrainz either automatically or manually

The MusicBrainz database of over five million tracks can be used to retrieve information about your track such as the li, artist, album artist and what type of release the album is (E.P, compilation, single, soundtrack ...).

Manual matching gives you full control, this is especially useful if you are dealing with multiples release of a song and it is important for you to get the correct release. For example you may have a single version of a track rather than an album version, and want to ensure it is matched against the single version.
