I know that. Thing is, LMS is the only programme to DISPLAY these tags.
I thought of my library being pretty tidied up but now I see these freak
tags. For tagging i use MP3tag and MusicBee and I wouldn't know any
better programme for this. But non of these programmes show these tags
(see MusicBee screenshot).

I haven't used WMP in years and I'm careful to switch off any
autotagging function.

I don't know the concept of "private tag", i don't know what it means.
As for the Itunes compliation I got advice from this forum that it is
vital to some of the LMS' functions.

As I said I am using MusicBee or MP3Tag.
