Why doesn the “Mass set tags” tool have ID3v2 support?

0

It DOES have ID3v2 support, just like EVERY tool in Mp3/Tag Studio has! There are several reasons for not putting separate ID3v1 and ID3v2 controls on each tool that supports both tag versions (i.e. all the tools): 1. It would clutter up the program interface and make it hard to use. 2. I have designed the program not to easily let people write inconsistent data to the ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags of files (although it is possible if you really want to), since this can lead to very confusing situations when later reading the tags with other programs. You practically always want the two tag versions to contain the same data. 3. The much better solution used in Mp3/Tag Studio is that you can decide exactly which tag-version(s) that the program should write to. You do this from the program main settings (under the file menu). This way you can customize it to write to any combination of tags, e.g. only ID3v1 tags (with optional ID3v1.1), only ID3v2 tags, or both ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags at the same ti
