OK, I see - but is an Export/Import an easy process to set up? How about implementing a feature like _Merge Paste_, ie overwrite tags which are represented in the paste buffer and leave the rest as they are? Or better still: this could be the default behaviour for paste - you could still make sure that no old tags survived by deleting all destination tags first, then copy + paste? **EDIT 13. septermber 2011:** A few more questions: 1. Has Copy/Paste from Edit Menu the exact same functionality as right-click Tag Copy/Tag Paste? 2. Saw this in the FAQ ([Tag Copy](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/965/1)): > [@](#): > > **How can I copy whole tags to other files?** > > Select the files you want the tags to be copied from and press [Ctrl+C].

It seems that the documentation is not accurate - maybe the destructive nature of the paste should be mentioned? Please also give comment about my feature suggestions?
