Tag Editor supports MP3, AIFF, WAV, FLAC, and MP4/M4A files. Tags are embedded in audio files.
Also, Tag Editor can parse iTunes playlists, Audio Playlists, CUE sheets, and shortcuts to open referenced audio files for tagging. Using the 'Export To' feature, you can export organized music to iTunes playlists, Audio Playlists, CSV, or Text Files.
