Winamp ID3 Auto-tag feature - WTH?

Winamps 'auto-tag' feature for filling in empty ID3 info is amusing. I used it on 'Fingertwisters - Roadshow' and it came up with 'Crooked Fingers - Pigeon Kicker' information instead. It must go by the most known tracks time, size and format to find song information. I guess I could use it to discover new music I don't know

I haven't seen that feature, is that in the free version?

I don't see how they can identify the song without analyzing the waveform.
