ID3 Tag Editors for OS X?

I am new to the Mac, and just converted my iPod to use iTunes 4. Is there a good Mac ID3 tag editor that does mass renames and cleanups? Windows has several.
Thanks!

Welcome to the Mac world, rwill. Here is the app that I use for mass tag edits, artwork searches, etc.

iTunes will do this, I believe. Select as many song files as you want to mass tag edit and then use the Get Info command. Any changes or edits you make on that one screen of configurable tag items will be applied to all songs selected.

To add to what khorning wrote,

You can batch-select tracks in iTunes several ways:

Shift-Click - allows you to select first and last tracks and it selects all in between

Command-Click - allows you to select non-sequential batches

in 'Browse' mode, you can select batches by Artist, Album or Genre

typing Command-i after selection will give the Info screen.
