-Picard is the next generation MusicBrainz tagging application. This new
-tagging concept is album oriented, as opposed to track/file oriented like
-the ClassicTagger was. Picard is written in Python, which is a cross-platform
-language, and makes use of cross-platform libraries - this allows the same
-code to run both on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
+MusicBrainz Picard is a cross-platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows)
+application written in Python. It supports the majority of audio
+file formats, uses PUID audio fingerprints, performs CD lookups
+and disc ID submissions, and it has excellent Unicode support.
+This application is the official MusicBrainz tagging application.
+
+Note: You need to compile and install `chromaprint' with `ffmpeg'
+installed for getting the `fpcalc' utility to lookup the music
+files against `AcoustID' and `MusicBrainz'.
