I just did an audit of my entire collection's ID3 tags, and found that in most cases I have both ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags. In a recent thread I was reading here someone mentioned that getting rid of ID3v1 tags altogether is a good idea, esp. in terms of how slimserver works. Opinions? Anyone have any horrible nightmare stories about how removing ID3v1 tags destroyed their files?
It worked fine for me. I was suffering problems because a few of the ID3v1 tags were slightly different from the ID3v2 tags. I only have about 50 albums left in mp3 though, as I'm re-ripping to flac. I think the biggest concern is if you use your mp3s in an older portable player that can't read the ID3v2 tags, mine only get used with Slimserver and they'll soon all be gone.
