MusicBrainz offers the following products for download and/or use. All of these are open source and/or free for non-commercial use.
There is also a list of third-party MusicBrainz enabled applications that feature MusicBrainz support.
Client applications
- MusicBrainz Picard
- Picard is a cross-platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) application written in Python. It supports the majority of audio file formats, uses PUID audio fingerprints, performs CD lookups and disc ID submissions, and it has excellent Unicode support.
- Magic Tagger
- A Windows tagger for the MP3 file format that sponsors MusicBrainz and uses a built-in excerpt of the MusicBrainz core data. Magic Tagger is a Tagger Affiliate Program member. Download here
- Jaikoz MP3 Tag Editor
- A Java based cross platform tagging application that uses MusicBrainz with PUID support. Jaikoz is a Tagger Affiliate Program member. Download here
- Rapport
- An open source Mac OS X tagger for MP3 and M4A format files with PUID support. Download here
MusicBrainz services
- Server
- The main MusicBrainz website.
- Database
- The MusicBrainz database, and the data live-feed (replication features).
- Live Data Feed
- The MusicBrainz service provides a live data feed for mirror servers, free of charge.
- FreeDB Gateway
- A gateway for accessing MusicBrainz data with CDDB/FreeDB clients through the FreeDB protocol.
Developer resources
- python-musicbrainz2
- A client library written in Python which provides easy object oriented access to the MusicBrainz database using the XML web service.
- XML web service
- The new, REST-based webservice API for direct access to MusicBrainz data (Please review the libraries above before writing your own implementation). This web service should be used for all new development.
- libdiscid
- A C library for creating MusicBrainz disc IDs from audio CDs.
Deprecated products
- Classic Tagger
- The predecessor of MusicBrainz Picard, this application had a track oriented approach to tagging and featured TRM acoustic fingerprinting.
- libmusicbrainz
- A development library geared toward developers who wish to utilize low-level access to the MusicBrainz Server RDF interface and the TRM Signature Server. This library and the RDF web service have been deprecated -- for details see web service.
- libtunepimp
- A development library geared towards developers who wish to write their own MusicBrainz enabled tagging application. This library and the RDF web service have been depricated -- for details see web service.
