Hi! I'm sorry that I didn't reply, was busy in a surprise trip.  
well, it seems that you don't understand much what I wanted to say. Let me try with pictures:  
I open Mp3tag last version to modify "ITUNESOWNER"

As you can see here, is working as usual.

Next to do is verify if the changes were succesful with Media Info tool:

In this picture shows that the changes has been made.

But, when I move the file to my iTunes Library, this is what appears in File Info:

So the file owner is modified, but the owner name persist.

No, is nothing to do with iTunes. I've deleted and add it again and again and clean or update the database and still appears the same.

So then, I opened the file with Notepad++ and I search for "ownr" and this what I got:  
see pic\_4  
As you can see, the owner information appears changed as it must be.

But then I made a search for "name" and in the first line next to "name" appears the actual owner name:  
see pic\_5

Thinking for a few minutes, I decided to try to modify the characters on the "name" section to see if it works in this way, trying to use the same amount of characters:  
see pic\_6  
As you can see, I've changed it to "Mp3tagFixThis!!" and then, saved it.

And for my surprise, when I go to iTunes to check, the "Purchased By" appears like this:  
see pic\_7  
...and the funny part is that iTunes was not closed in the moment I modified th file. So is not a problem of iTunes or its databases.  
Please, let me know if you know what's going on.

Regards.
