Why it is installed to root, not to program files folder?

You can specify whatever folder you like during installation

This program says that it requires reboot after download but I was able to use it and register it w/out reboot.

The app did not discriminate my music from my movies. I found the interface complicated compared to similar apps.

Either this company doesn't know there are MANY freeware apps that does the same and more or they are counting on people not knowing about the freeware options. Just to name a few:
- MediaMonkey
- Jangle (formerly Teen Spirit)
- aTunes

Last time I tried this, the program did a lot of things "automatically".

I depend heavily on my mp3-tags. When I tried to use this program last time, I selected "update" and that is just what the program did. It "updated" all the selected files (2 albums), and told me this was 5 different albums by 3 different artists. No option to "update or discard changes". Is this improved in this version?

My personal preference regarding mp3s:
Gracenote for updating tags (through Winamp (free), www.winamp.com the only player I have found that gives me CONTROL of my +100' songs). Select files, select "update tags", and see WHAT changes the program suggests to your mp3s. You know what album you are trying to tag, and if gracenote does not agree with you about what album you are working on, just dont press the update-button.

Mp3tag (free) (http://www.mp3tag.de/en/) for file-renaming, adding covers (covers added IN the file, not just in the album folder), batch-renaming of album/artist/genre/whatever.

My way of working: I open the ripped CD in Winamp and update the tags from the net (gracenote), if gracenote agrees with me on what CD I am working on. This gives me additional information about album/album artist etc.

Then I use MP3tag to correct the filename, to add comments, to add cover etc.

Then I put the album on my music-disk, organized in folders from A to Z, with each artist/band having its own folder, and each of their CD's having their own folder sorted by year and title.

Then I just add the new folder(s) in Winamps database, and my whole music collection is searchable and sortable by year/album/artist/genre/comments/rating/whatever.

The only thing this giveaway has that my system does not have is lyrics, but there are Winamp-plugins that handle this (I really don't care, I sing along based on what I THINK the song is about, and dare anyone to complain). The artist biography is automatically available if Winamp is connected to the net (not downloadable, but there are probably plugins for that as well)

So, I'll pass on this one, bearing in mind the recent spotify-error where all users own files were AUTOMATICALLY updated and retagged. To little control, having spent way to much time arranging my music to have it "automatically" readjusted.

Installed OK on Windows 7 but after adding files to it's database, it crashed. It restarted OK and seems to run fine. However, the only reason I installed this was to update my album info and download album covers. I tried it with at least 10 songs and it only found one album cover. It wouldn't find well known artists, like Billy Idol, Britney Spears.... Is there a way to update what database it checks for album art??
