Don't.

VB is a Bad Language.  Its error handling is arcane; it has OO forced
in; etc.  (Of course, the common alternatives for MS GUIs are all poor;
raw win32 API is a massive pain to deal with; so is MFC, but VB is
killing the project before it starts.)

Err.  ID3v2 on Ogg?  Guess you can do it, but ...

I'd like to see a way to put Ogg tags on MP3s in some form, so I can
have a single tag set.  (Of course, id3v2 offers a lot that ogg tags
currently don't, but that can be added later, separately.  Little of
that is used, since neither editors nor players tend to support them.  I
don't know if this is a simple chicken-and-egg problem or if people
wouldn't use it if it was there.   I would use untimed lyrics and might
use loosely timed lyrics once in a while--another thing that could use
multiple language support, but that's a bit more difficult.)
