What's the best software for

I use iTunes, but I don't like the way it handles metadata. I've tried a few options, but I haven't found anything that "floats my boat".

1. I want accurate information, proper spelling and punctuation.
2. I DO NOT care about "genre". Genre is the most useless bit of information. I just had iTunes/Gracenote label Paul Simon as "punk"!?!?
3. I want good album art. Nice and clean
4. I want "greatest hits" and "compilations" to be organized. I don't want a dozen listening for one album because of the "guest" musicians.

I've learned how to fix this manually by changing the tags, but it's a pain. Any suggestions will be great. Thanks for your help!

Referencing your No. 3 - I got virtually all of my artwork for iTunes from Google Images. Quite often you get several options for the same album cover. Occasionally I got a good one from freecover.com (I think there was a dash in there somewhere because there were two freecover websites.

Like you, I had to manually change a lot of tags to suit my needs and it was indeed a pain but now it is done and a great program IMO.
