MP3::Info at present processes the multi-value fields for only the TCON
frames. I'm working on extending the code to support all text frames at
the moment.

Um... if you want to be universally compatible, you avoid *all* the
ID3v2 versions, surely ? Many clients support only ID3v1(.1), and this
is why - to stay universally compatible - I use that.

Without wishing to get into any arguments over this, I personally don't
understand the continued use of the known-broken ID3v2.3 tags by so many
otherwise respectable applications. Of the forms of ID3v2 which are
defined, the .4 specification is far and away the most reliable and
useful.
