Gracenote also provides similar tagging features in Winamp and provides lyrics for Yahoo! Music. Gracenote works similar to MusicBrainz (available in Amarok for instance), by creating an audio fingerprint of a song and matching it to a database - except that unlike MusicBrainz, Gracenote's database is not user-contributed. Does Gracenote / TrackID work properly with Hindi songs? I tried in Winamp a few times, and for most Hindi songs it returned crap data. Motorola phones come bundled with Shazam's MusicID recognition service. Works similar to TrackID, and once a song has been identified it also offers you to buy the track from Motomusic. In my testing, it worked really well with Hindi songs too - even when I threw old songs at it. TrackID is actually not Sony’s own service, but licensed from Gracenote (that’s the new name of CDDB).
