I did see file-remove tags, and it does more or less what it says,
remove tags.  :-)  It removes them all though.  It would be nice if it
removed only the tag types I didn't want to keep like ID3v1 and APEv2.

I've installed the other tag editors mentioned here but I haven't used
them yet.  I'll have to find one that can identify what tag types are
present and that can remove only certain types.  snarlydwarf mentions
that eyeD3 and id3v2 can remove certain file types, I'll have to see if
they can identify what tag types are present.

Oh and:

That one last thing did the trick.  Rubyripper is not like EAC or the
other Linux rippers in that it tags automatically, so the placeholders
%a for artist, %b for album (yes, %b in Rubyripper), %t for title, %g
for genre, are not meant to be used in the encoder arguments.  FLAC
worked but I noticed that the artist was being tagged as "%a - <artist
name>".  LAME did not work with this though and would crash with a
memory dump if Rubyripper was invoked through the CLI.
