> Hi, I have tried to add a new web source in OS X (running under Wine) but I cannot succed. In Windows I normally put the new source under %APPDATA% However under Wine the sources can be found only in /Applications/Mp3tag.app/Contents/Resources/wineprefix/drive\_c/Program Files/Mp3tag/data/sources trying to add a new Web source (i.e. iTunes.src) in that folder does not show up on the screen. Any suggestion?

Don't know if it works.
