Enforcement Of Id3 Tags In All Song Files Options

[rafian]

Hi Rafians,

Over the years, we must've uploaded and downloaded hundreds or thousands of songs, but over a period of time the details of these songs are lost. For example you would've downloaded a rare song say a year ago and today you may not be able to name the composer, lyricist or movie name. It would be great if we could enforce a policy of setting the ID3 tags correctly for all uploaded songs.

Basically we need a mechanism to ensure that all uploaded songs have the ID3 tags correctly set. Once we follow this policy then users could upload songs without any textual information about the songs in their posts. It could actually save members' time.

What do you guys think about this idea? It would be great if you could suggest ways to ensure that all the mp3 files follow a uniform standard which will help us precisely identify the stats of each song forever. I am sure you guys have much better ideas than I do so please chip in.
