Automatically fill out songs meta data on OS X [closed]

Sometimes when I get .mp3s they are missing some of their meta data (album, genre, year released, lyrics, album art) and iTunes does not fill it in for me (apart from album art, somtimes).

You can use IEatBrainz. It uses the MusicBrainz system to automatically tag your files. The UI isn't quite as polished as you might expect for a mac app, but it works pretty well. It doesn't change the iTunes metadata, so you will have to update that separately. Fortunately, it is fairly easy: Just find the file in iTunes and hit Command-I to get file info. iTunes will read the tags and update its metadata.

MusicBrainz Picard works just fine on OS X. http://musicbrainzdotorg/doc/PicardDownload
