OK. > TITLESORT analogous to (ALBUM|ARTIST|ALBUMARTIST)SORT Does anybody really sort songs by title? And is a separate "SORT" variant really necessary? > LABEL electronic [dance] music That's just some company which sells the music. Is this really relevant for the MPD user? > REMIXER electronic [dance] music OK (I wouldn't use that tag, but if you feel it's really important ...) > CONDUCTOR classical music OK. > LYRICIST audiobooks and classical music That's the guy who wrote the text? Do we really need to differentiate who authored the music and the text? > LANGUAGE audiobooks > ISRC identifier OK. > PERFORMER drop or keep for compatibility From a logical point of view, we should rather remove the "ARTIST" tag. What does ARTIST mean, anyway? For most (pop/rock) music, it's the performer (but not the author); for others, it's the author, and PERFORMER describes who performed it. But for pop/rock music, there is no AUTHOR tag. I guess we can't bring consistency here; people will be confused, won't they? > MOOD, RATING Is this stuff really neccessary? MOOD is something like GENRE? RATING - whose rating is this? This should better be kept in a separate database (e.g. MPD stickers). _______________________________________________ mpd-devel mailing list mpd-devel@musicpd.org http://mailman.blarg.de/listinfo/mpd-devel
