The Tunatic database is maintained by the Tunatic community itself through a program called Tunalyzer. Tunalyzer (when installed and enabled) scans your computer for music. When it finds a song that is not in Tunatic's database yet, it analyzes it and sends its audio fingerprint and metadata (title, artist, etc.) to the Tunatic server. Thus, that song can later be identified by other Tunatic users.

The more users install and enable Tunalyzer, the more songs can be identified through Tunatic. You have the power to make Tunatic better! :^)

Where does Tunalyzer look for music?
Tunalyzer looks for music in the "Music" folder in your home folder. Tunalyzer looks for mp3 or AAC files with metadata (title, artist, etc.)
If your "Music" folder contains mp3 or AAC files with inaccurate metadata, please don't enable Tunalyzer.

How much CPU/bandwidth will Tunalyzer consume?
Tunatic works in the background, when no user activity (mouse motion, keystrokes) occurs. Thus, Tunatic doesn't interfere with your work. And since audio fingerprints are highly compressed, Tunatic consumes very little network bandwidth.

What about privacy?
We are concerned about privacy. None of your personal information is collected by our software (Tunatic and Tunalyzer) or transmitted by our software from your computers to ours. IP addresses may be recorded for security purposes.

What's New:
Tunalyzer now logs its activity. Click "View Log..." to see the log of processed tracks.
You can now choose the location where Tunalyzer will search for music files. Click the "Choose Search Path..." button.
