+BPSync Plugin
+=============
+
+This plugin provides the ``bpsync`` command, which lets you fetch metadata
+from Beatport for albums and tracks that already have Beatport IDs. This
+is useful for updating tags as they are fixed in the Beatport database, or
+when you change your mind about some config options that change how tags are
+written to files. If you have a music library that is already nicely tagged by
+a program that also uses Beatport, this can speed up the initial import if you
+just import "as-is" and then use ``bpsync`` to get up-to-date tags that are written
+to the files according to your beets configuration.
+
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Enable the ``bpsync`` plugin in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`)
+and then run ``beet bpsync QUERY`` to fetch updated metadata for a part of your
+collection (or omit the query to run over your whole library).
+
+This plugin treats albums and singletons (non-album tracks) separately. It
+first processes all matching singletons and then proceeds on to full albums.
+The same query is used to search for both kinds of entities.
+
+The command has a few command-line options:
+
+* To preview the changes that would be made without applying them, use the
+  ``-p`` (``--pretend``) flag.
+* By default, files will be moved (renamed) according to their metadata if
+  they are inside your beets library directory. To disable this, use the
+  ``-M`` (``--nomove``) command-line option.
+* If you have the ``import.write`` configuration option enabled, then this
+  plugin will write new metadata to files' tags. To disable this, use the
+  ``-W`` (``--nowrite``) option.
+* To customize the output of unrecognized items, use the ``-f``
+  (``--format``) option. The default output is ``format_item`` or
+  ``format_album`` for items and albums, respectively.
