I discovered that ogginfo and vorbiscomment do not recognize an ogg file
with an id3v1 or id3v2 tag( I was mistaken about the id3v3 tag. It was
only appended to the .wav on extraction. Oggdrop strips the info and then
I would use a tag editor to add the tags myself)
I've also decided to move my encoding/tagging to Linux. It's easier to
create utilities on that platform for now. No MS BS to deal with ;P. I
was thinking that I would be good for vorbis to have some utilites on
Windows; Since Joe User probably has windows.
