 Simple python tool using mutagen library, which cleans a large set of mp3 files tags (tested on 10k+ files). Especially usefull for fixing invalid charset encoding, removing diacritics (AFAIK this is the only tool that can remove diacritics in ID3 tags), and deleting unwanted tags (can define which tags should be kept). Options are set via command line or configuration file (contains useful module, that provides unified interface to both conf. file and cmd line options).
