May I suggest you take a look at picard?  It will certainly do what you
want, and a lot more.  IMO, it's the best tool available for filling in
audio tags and renaming/moving files.

If you use it, I suggest you also install the cover art downloader (
http://musicbrainz.org/doc/PicardQt/Plugins).
It really should be included, but oh well.

P.S. EAC still beats all other audio rippers (at least on linux and windows)
at ensuring good rips.  As far as native linux solutions go, rrip is as
close as you can get, but its results are still inferior - plus it's a lot
slower and requires more manual configuration.
