The other reviewer doesnt seem to like this product. Maybe its his computer but im also using a macbook running snow leopard and i love this software. It takes about 2-3 seconds per song but that is exactly how long they say it should take. This program fixed my 3,000 song library really fast and theres only like 50 or so songs that dont have the correct album art but its way better than before and worth the money. If your still unsure about this program, there is a trial you can get at their webstite that will clean 100 songs. I recommend it.

I bought Tuneup for my iPod and Macbook (Snow Leopard). What a waste of money.

It's PAINFULLY slow in everything it does - cleaning up song titles especially. Supposedly,

it will clean up the file name (removing track number, hyphens, underscores etc.) and

restore it to a 'friendly' title. However, much of the time it completely CHANGES the

song title - one Beethoven title actually got retitled into CHINESE! The Album Art retrieval

function is only slightly more in depth than the iTunes art function, but just plain SLOOOWWWW

in retrieving the art. Lastly the software is prone to lockups. Right now as I type this,

it is totally hung trying to download an update. Almost every time I use this software I have

to Force Quit to shut it down. I actually cannot think of a single thing good to say - it's just

plain a bad product. Save your money.

[EDIT] Update - I just took this software off my Mac for good. After the recent update, it

just simply no longer works whatsoever! Just sits and spins for HOURS looking for missing

album art, never coming up with a single result. Their logo says "your music is a mess" - well,

my music is NOT a mess but this software most certainly IS a mess.

Thirty bux down the toilet.

This is just what I have been looking for!!! I am a ballroom dancer and have many songs on of old cds whose files dont come up on the computer, leaving me with dozens of songs marked "track 2, track 3 with no info. I need to keep my files in order . I just downloaded the free demo version on this program and I was blown away!!! It took only seconds to identify, organize, and find cover art for some very obscure songs--amazing!! No more mystery songs!!!! I am going to buy the full featured version immediately!!!

I purchased this product some time ago and wanted to come on here to warn others against buying this software. Not only does it incorrectly tag many songs, it takes a tremendous time to do so and freezes CONSTANTLY. I have used the program on two different computers, including a Macbook Pro, and it has frozen on both. It may do an 'acceptable' job of identifying fairly well-known rock songs, but good luck if your collection includes hip hop, electronic, or certain older songs (even common rock such as the Rolling Stones). Steer clear of this product. It will save you a lot of hassle.

This is like the smart phone apps Shazam or Soundhound for music you already have on your computer but is unlabeled. Potentially valuable, time-saving tool but ultimately disappointing implementation. I've used it intermittently for for two or three years. Every now and then I use it to label tracks I don't want to do manually (e.g. when I rip mixed cds from friends and have more than a handful of unlabeled tracks). Too often it can't recognize a tune. Sometimes it TuneUp just hangs (working but not producing results). Matching album art to tunes was equally disappointing. A lot of the album pics were completely wrong. The time you spend correcting the mistakes makes this not worth the expense.

This program is fantastic. It'll find the correct names and order things should be put in it'll find your album art it does it all. You can even see videos of your song from youtube. The only small problem I have is a lot of music has very poor album art. I end up having to search for the album art myself, but it does give you album art. most are in the 300x300 - 400x400 range. I'm pretty picky and want 500+ so that when I click on the album art it's nice and big. Other than that it's a great product and I highly recommend it.

Tune-Up is a very disappointing product. It failed to recognize duplicates as it claimed it would--worse, I had to pay an additional $20.00 to Tune-Up after purchasing it from Amazon in order to find "unlimited" duplicates in my music files (which includes over 5,000 songs). The package as shipped limited "de-dupping" to 50 songs!! It located no more than 2 dozen duplicates--Itunes is still able to reveal over 50 remaining duplicates without Tune-Up. The product claims to find "all missing album art" but my collection is still missing album art on several dozen albums (although, admittedly, some are quite obscure). Numerous albums show the wrong cover including covers from other artists entirely. Tune-Up was a total waste of money.

Be careful of getting a 'lifetime' membership with Tune Up because your activation code will only work once or twice. I sold my old computer and got a new one and even tech support can't solve my issue of transferring the activation key to my new computer. Super lame. it's as if they are at the mercy of their own slow/glitchy software!!!!

DO NOT PURCHASE TUNEUP! DOES NOT WORK! DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY! NOT WORTH IT!

Company does not care

no product support

likely to be going out of Business soon

This program works great. Does what it says it will do, and is easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to clean up their music library. It does what Itunes will not do.
