Editor's review for beaTunes

Although iTunes is one of the most popular forms of musical storage in existence today, most people still have track data misspelled and misplaced making it very hard to sort and navigate through such libraries. However, the beaTunes software can solve this dilemma for you quickly, due to the fact that it is a detection tool that was designed to be used by DJs, and since has been refined so that it can be used to manage just about any digital music library out there, including your own.

The inspection feature of beaTunes makes it easy to clean up track data so that album, artist, and track information is correctly entered keeping your listings in perfect order. Even more helpful is the fact that everything will become synchronized so that you do not have to search through the R.E.M list in order to get to the same material from artists that have commonly misspelled names. Another clever trick that most people find especially helpful is the fact that beaTunes will sort through compilation music, placing it into the correct artist format so that you do not have to remember a soundtrack title to find the song on your mind.

The BeaTunes software works by looking at the beats per minute, known as BPM and using it to store the resort that matches automatically into your iTunes library. Using this feature, it can automatically find your songs by their tonal key along with all the pertinent metadata that should be tagged with each track.

During this process, your music library is update and typos, genre labels, sortnames, and other list details are automatically fixed so that what sits in front of you is correct. Thus, you can actually search for an artist and get their full list of songs instead of just the ones that you entered correctly.

Outside of fixing your music library, the BeaTunes software also can help you create perfect playlists for every mood or occasion as well since it is able to create playlists based off of your selections. Thus, if you are in the mood for mellow music, you may want to select one or two artists that represent your mood and BeaTunes can create an entire playlist from there. You can even use the software to detect songs that match and are closely related to the very tune that you are listening to at the second.

Although this is enough to make the free trial of BeaTunes worth checking out, there are still plenty of other perks built into the software that include the ability to instantly see the Amazon album charts at a second’s will via the program, the ability to import lyrics to all of your songs as you listen, and the ability to automatically post your favourite playlists or songs of the day to blogger.com. In fact, spreading and enjoying your music will never be the same once you try out what BeaTunes can do for your digital music experience.
