The facility to report problems included in v2.19 allowed us to discover that many users found it difficult to use MP3 Cat for the first time. This update makes the first encounter more intuitive by automatically creating an empty database in the Documents folder.

It’s now possible to drag’n'drop tracks from the main list to other applications.

“an intuitive and powerful tool that will help any user with a large collection of music files”

Here’s the full review.

This version properly reads the artist field from WMA files (if present, of course).

This release adds a sanity check to prevent a rare exception when loading data from the database (i.e. when it contains invalid file date values).

How does it work?

How is this possible?

Advertisers want to pay for your business. Instead of buying a TV commercial or an ad on a bus as a means of acquiring new customers, with TrialPay advertisers pay for your free product, encouraging you to become a new customer.

So while this offer seems too good to be true, it’s actually in everyone’s best interest…and just as good as it sounds.

Is it really free? What’s the catch?

Yes, it’s really free. TrialPay is simply a new method of advertising that pays customers with free or discounted products out of advertising revenue. You get your chosen product for free by trying or buying something you already wanted anyway.

The terms of each advertiser offer vary from totally free (try Stamps.com, set up an eBay account) to paid or subscription services (send flowers from FTD.com or join Blockbuster Total Access). Regardless of the advertising terms, your initial product and the TrialPay transaction are always totally free. And TrialPay customer service is free, too.

This release fixes a small problem when reading ID3v2 tags encoded as UTF16: extraneous characters could appear at the end of the texts.

This version contains the following changes:

• Added “Database->Add file…” to add a single file to the database.
• Files can be added using drag’n'drop on the main list as well.

MP3 Cat can now work with Music Box databases, so you can consult your music catalog even if you’re not at your Mac.
