as far as i know you can't. you have to use id3v1 or id3v2 tags. if you
using linux i have made a patch for abcde, a command line ripper/encoder w/
cddb and id3 support. if you want it, i can make it available. its just a
shell script so it may work with other unix as well.

let me know and i'll put it on my web page.
