Huh, I don't see the problem.

At least it works very nice for mp3's. The problem is that I still have so 
many mp3's and not many oggs. (Damn emusic.com... no oggs.)

I tried it with some home-ripped CD's, but I spose that both K3B and grip 
didn't add nice Vorbis tags to the files... Is this true?

Well, if you know that a bunch of Ogg files is supposed to be one album, you 
have the track times and number of tracks. If the time is preserved decently 
enough it'll work, since that's all the info that's used to fetch cddb (or 
FreeDB) information.

Kasper
