Metadator beta is out!

Hi you all! Hope that you are nice. Today I'm launching Metadator, an Android metadata editor powered by TagLib for being able to edit you music files ID3 tags.

All the features that the app contains are already told in the README, so I'm not going to bother you a lot more.
I just wanted to thank you for the incredible help and motivation that you have been giving to me all these months with Spowlo. Yes, the development of Spowlo is still in course and some day it will be launched, but since I don't have all the time that I wanted, I want to give you some little parts of what is coming so you can go enjoying new features and apps from me.

Thanks!!!
