Is it possible to specify which fields I want when getting tags from the cloud (example: discogs). It seems it writes a whole heap of fields and I don't really need that much info. Thanks

You can edit the web source scripts so that they meet your needs - they are plain text files.

And in case you have problems in understanding the code of these scripts it is an easy workaround to delete with a simple click all unwanted tag-fields that are filled with the script with an action of the type "Remove fields except" in which you can define the tag-fields you want to keep.
