Sorry, I probably wasn't very clear. You still get your info from those
sources but you need to set up in EAC how it uses that info.  In the
options there a setup on what field goes where and you can change that
to suit your needs. By dynamic I mean it's not set in advance but based
on the tags of each album using masks ie <album> instead of Dark Side of
the Moon. You use masks in Mp3tag also so it's a good thing to get an
idea on how they work. I'm still learning. There are lots of different
ways to have EAC use the info depending on how you like your music
organized.  I changed to dbpoweramp because it's a lot easier to set up
and you can see what info is being used from freedb and allmusic to tag
the main fields and change if you want before it rips. It also gets
album art and is every bit as secure a ripper. But EAC will do a fine
job you just have to play with it more.  Smc2511's post will get you
started on fixing your current ones.  Mp3tag is a great program, one
that I actually donated to because it saved me a couple of times.  The
more you use it and read up on it the more you'll appreciate it. 
Anyway I hope I haven't confused you more.
