EACH track contains a TAG. This TAG has lots of different fields (or can have lots of different fields). The fields are things like ARTIST, ALBUM, GENRE, ALBUM ARTIST, DATE, COMPILATION, COMMENT, etc. The data within the fields (within the TAG) are referred to as "metadata". The 3 files you see when you rip related to an album are artwork files (two of them) and I'm not sure about the 3rd file (maybe just a log file telling you something about the ripping of the album; I get this with my dbpa rips). But the 3rd file is NOT a tag. The tags are embedded within each song file (track). -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83244 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
