README

Adds record label to playlists.

Input playlist file must be in the format

Artist,Song,Album
Artist,Song,Album
...

Or with tab separators instead of commas if you give the -t option.

It reads from standard input by default and writes to dtandard output, or you may specify files:

labeler [-t] [in [out]]
  -t   use tab separators rather than commas
  in   input file name, or - for for stdin
  out  output file name, or - for for stdout

It is very slow, using one search and two lookups in Musicbrainz for each item.

Sometimes it can’t find the item in Musicbrainz and sometimes Musicbrainz doesn't have the label for the item.
