  I'm looking at it, but my first impression is that it solves a
different problem. They can give each track a unique id. And make
everything searchable by artist. The focus seems to be P2P networks.
And you need a hugh effor to implement it. What I'm looking is an easy
way to comment MY CD collection. Besides their standard is not
flexible. Yes, it's extensible, because it's XML. But not user
extensible. They are only putting the info they want.
  Just to put an example track:

  This is what I would like to have. All we need for this is a
database by artist/CD, that stores a text file for each track and then
you can browse it and store it locally if you want.

Best regards,
 Alejandro Belluscio
