Someone mentioned above that when you have multiple artists in the Artist field, iTunes/Music.app displays this as Artist 1, Artist 2 & Artist 3. But I notice that anything I've downloaded from Apple Music is sorted Firstname Lastname (just like how it would appear in the ARTIST tag), so I'm thinking that if I want to tag my own music exactly as it would be tagged by Apple Music then I shouldn't use any of the SORT tags, right? I know that iTunes/Music.app honors these fields though, because I used to tag ARTISTSORT as Lastname, Firstname. I see the discussion above about swapping TITLE and TITLESORT, but when I look at the extended tags in mp3tag from an album I purchased directly from iTunes, I don't even see ALBUMSORT ARTISTSORT or TITLESORT tags. Does Apple Music's metadata actually provide multiple genres even though Apple's music apps (iTunes/Music.app) only display one? If so, how could I modify the script to only save the top genre (the one that would be displayed if that album were to be displayed directly in Apple Music? As far as I can see, none of my iTunes purchases or tracks I've downloaded from Apple Music has multiple genres, yet when I try to use this script to tag files with Apple Music metadata all or most of it ends up tagged with multiple genres, separated by two backslashes (e.g. My first question was about why information in parentheses from the title field was going into the comment field, but I've already found the discussion on that and seen the updated script has provided to fix it. I have a mix of music I've ripped myself from CDs (via FLAC->ALAC->iTunes Match) and music I just download from AM and I would like Artists, genres and other tags to be as consistent as possible so my library feels cohesive. My goal would be for the script to produce tags that are indistinguishable from tags on songs added to my library via Apple Music itself (and in the same style/format). Thank you to and others who have contributed. Hi all- very pleased to find this script.
