Not absolutely sure they are ID3 tags. Now that I try to investigate
this, I find that EasyTag 1.1 for NetBSD has one tiny bug. It crashes
when I try to view the Preferences via a button at the top. I'm not
sure how to qualify which mode it is in.
They are Vorbis files when I open them into EasyTag. So it may very well
be just as you surmise and I have erred.
I must now reply "Oh!...never mind", as did Gilda Radner on SNL when
Dianne Curtain interrupted her outspoken diatribe on the silliness
of becoming upset about "endangered feces".
