Hi.
What's the difference between ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags?
Cheers,
Steve

ID3v1:

Title
Album
Artist
"comment"

ID3v1.1
Same, "common" changed to track number

ID3v2.x
Little relation to ID3v1 standard
variable size tags to hold different amounts of data

At this point, they're basically interchangeable, as the last update to ID3v2 was in 2000.
