id3ren is used to rename batches of mp3 files by reading the ID3 tag at the end of the file which contains the song name, artist, album, year, and a comment. The secondary function of id3ren is a tagger, which can create, modify, or remove ID3 tags. The id3 fields can be set on the command line, or "guessed" from the path and the filename.

Here are some key features of "id3ren":
be used to rename you mp3
be used to edit and tag your mp3
be used to see the id3 tags
get information from the filename to tag the files
create directories when renaming
support idv1.1 tags
copy tags from another mp3

What's New in This Release:
Added support for id3 v1.1
Added automatic directory creation when renaming.
Added a "-default" option to handle blank fields when renaming.
Added the possibility to copy tags from other files.
Changed the default "space" char to a more sensible " " when renaming.
Uniformisation of the syntaxes of the different options. (all options can use = or next arg, with or without quotes)
Different handling of the options in the resource file (same as commandline).
Existing .id3renrc files might need an update.
