Actually TPE2 isn't just 'Band', it is "The 'Band/Orchestra/Accompaniment' frame is used for additional information about the performers in the recording." So it is basically subsidiary information to the main performer tag (TPE1). Classical works should be tagged with the main performer (featured soloist perhaps) in TPE1 and the Orchestra in TPE2. For Completeness, conductor would be in TPE3. TPE2 or BAND is very useful on classical albums which often have similar titles. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46093 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
