Sometimes I had the case that I wanted to export the '%title%' tag texts of an album to a text file (with CR/LF to separate the lines) so that I can import them into a better ripped album
Same as the function 'import tag values from text file', just the other way around
Wouldn't that be a useful new function for other people too?
Thanks

It already exists, see "File \> Export"

the easiest way to do that is just copy & paste. load boath verisions of the album in Mp3Tag, mark all tracks of the already tagged version, right-mouse-click \> copy tags. then mark all tracks of the second version, right-mouse-click \> paste tags.
tracks have to be sorted in the same order, of course.
