wouldn't do it.  You are just looking for problems because it breaks
the .wav standard. You can make it work but you never know when a
problem is going to show up.  While it can work and function ok no
players support it.  Maybe 1 or 2 albums if you just have to do it but
I wouldn't risk a large collection on it.  I wouldn't think that the SB
is going to support this non standard type of tag for wav. With flac or
Mp3's you can store much more info correctly and you can imbed album
art and store art by having it in the same folder.
