Love beets, used it now for a few years with foobar2000/cmus as my media player. A few tasks I've found somewhat irky (most recently handling the Blue / Green / Red / White / Teal / Black albums by Wheezer which are all officially just named 'Wheezer'), but otherwise very easy and accurate tagging interface.
