If I make my own scheme for those fields (which it sounds like would be ok) presumably Im at risk of it getting upset if I should ever wind up reacquiring metadata on a track or tracks.Yes they could be inconsistent. I'm also not sure what they might have been putting into Style and Mood fields. given what Im hearing hear, if Im getting metadata from different sources (depending on when & how CDs were ripped etc) does this mean they might be inconsistent? I think I get the basic message (but not wanting to quibble I think I have seen in various places lists of ID3 Genre codes but I admit I havent checked to see if they all agree!!) Heck, even Genre doesn't really have many standards. Is that just Apple being Apple, or is there a reason? (But the DO have a tag called Love which really has me intrigued. iTunes does not have either Style of Mood in its smart playlist drop down. Some people use it for things like: exercise, chill, housework, party,ĥ. But it would be good to have standard definitions. Mood I think is fairly self evident and different from Genre or Style. Genre = Jazz, Style = Vocal, or Bebop, or Cool, etc.Ĥ. Probably the most common is as a 'subgenre' (e.g., Genre = Rock, Style = Hard or Heavy or Folk, etc. Classical / Opera for example, except Opera is actually a Genre. It could be a sort of sub-genre is Genre were just broad categories. Its not clear to me conceptually how Style would differ from Genre.

Are they 'front line' tags that most tagging and playing software will recognise? (Im thinking they could be useful in playlist generation for example)
