After I
posted yesterday that a music publisher had shut down the lyric search widget pearLyrics, alert reader Dylan mentioned that a similar program,
Evil Lyrics, was still out there. Sure enough, it is. The program does just about the same thing as pearLyrics — that is, it searches web sites that contain song lyrics to display them while you're listening to music. Unlike pearLyrics, which was a Mac/iTunes-only program, Evil Lyrics works with almost any music player, including iTunes, MusicMatch and Windows Media Player. Evil Lyrics is Windows-only, though, so Mac users may have to try hunting down copies of pearLyrics from servers that haven't deleted it yet. In the meantime, Windows users should grab Evil Lyrics before it, too, vanishes.

Evil Lyrics is great!
But Im looking (for some time now) for an app that could read/write lyrics directly from/into the Mp3 Id tags, I used to have one for winamp but now for itunes the options are kind of limited.
thanks!

This looks good, but I couldn't find the link for it on their site. Did I miss it or something? Or am I just unobservant?

I also couldn't find a download link. It looks like they may have removed the hyperlink for downloading.

The link is there. Click download on the left side of the homepage and then click on Addict3d on the download page.

ditto on that first comment
Manually copying the lyrics into iTunes is tedious
