TAGS are not only "searching" tools or clues, but also a kind of marks to assert copyright and other intellectual property rights.

I didn't find any feature in the software who can allow a protection of the tags against unwonted modifications.

If such a function does exist, is anyone there who could tell me where is it?

If it doesn't exist, could it be possible to add it in future?

Best regards!  
M.M.

Not really an MP3tag topic as MP3tag is for editing tags and not locking them.  
Also, DRM solutions usually cost you something. MP3tag is free.

If you want to have more information, search the internet e.g. this external link: [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7584186...-a-mp3-wav-file](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7584186/how-to-apply-drm-on-a-mp3-wav-file)
