Hello All, I've been using MP3TAG for a while now. Thanks. A few ideas:

1. Add additional playback modes, such as shuffle, quick interface to iTunes, etc.

2. Locate duplicates with options to delete, etc.

3. Interface to phones, iPOD etc.

4. Dealing with file/title named spellings, etc.

5. User sharing of scripts and tools ... like maybe doing some of the above items.

You have a great product.

Billy

I would like to add the following thoughts:

Mp3tag is a tagger not a player.

Mp3tag looks at the current file. As this is unique, there are no duplicates.

This would require to write driver software for a lot of devices - as they all have their peculiarities I would say it is much easier to rely on the ablities of the devices interface. if this interface cannot deal with a filesystem then it si pointless to ask this feature from mp3tag. if the feature is there - why have it twice?

This would require that you have a language field set properly.  
Also, a lot of groups play with the language and deliberately use mis-spelled words (see e.g. P!nk, Prince, Slate)

Did you have a look at the various sections of this forum? E.g. web-sources shows a number of scripts developed by other users.  
And also, the forum in general is about sharing knowledge about mp3tag and tagging.
