This is just one reason why empeg should support ID3v2 tags. You can tag tracks with as many genres as you like with ID3v2, and qualify each genre with a text string if you choose, for purposes of clarification, expansion or whatever.

Martin Nillson (a leading light of ID3v2) put some work into trying to put the genres into a more manageable hierarchical structure, but this work remains unfinished. His paper is on www.id3.org somewhere, but unfortunately I've lost the URL and it isn't pointed at from within the site. I'll see if I can find out and post the address.

Cheers,
