The one hitch being lyrcis and use there of just went thru soe major legal
battles. Remeber the Lyric Server being shut down for unlawful use of
copyrighted lyrcis? Reme,ber OLGA going down to the same RIAA lawyer
fights?

So the question here is, why tag on more ilegal data when your trying to
go legit?
 
On the other hand, why not. Since its all going to be labeled as
pirate anyway why not just put in all the lyrics, tabultur, photos, cover
scans, artist bios and what not? Or if its an mp3 why ot add a link to a
page that contains them in the ID3?
