I also experienced this.  However, I still had some problems.  Here's what I did.

I loaded one song, the Beatles' "Across the Universe".  I knew it had absolutely no tag info in it.  To my suprise, it filled out some info on it.  I appologize for my earlier confusion, but there was no information saying the program did this.

Anyway, it only filled out the artist and track name fields.  Of course, I wanted all the fields.  So I tried something else.  I removed the song from the playlist and closed the program.  I then renamed the song from "Beatles - Across the Universe.mp3" to "song.mp3".  Then I removed all tag info.  Then I opened PMA and loaded the song.  This time it just sat there, with the word "song" sitting in the track name field.  I played the entire song about 3 times.  Nothing.

What's up?

I also have yet to see a song get all it's fields completed.  That's including "Loser" by Beck which, I assume, xml was able to get.

WHAT'S UP?

ps-honestly, I don't want another MP3 player.  You should stick to making a program the just tags songs at first.  After that works, you should expand.
