The news comes as TuneUp prepares to announce a major product revision to better organize digital music collections. TuneUp has ascended to the top of iTunes plugin deck on the backs of features that correct music metadata and fill missing album art.
Launching in Q4 2010, the new TuneUp will add lyrics support and library deduplication. While iTunes currently supports deduplication, it isn't the smartest aspect of the software. TuneUp's DeDuper is capable of intelligently removing duplicates from music collections through the use of acoustic fingerprinting technology. Additionally, it's capable of distinguishing the same tracks from original albums, greatest hits and compilations.
