The reason that I asked is because I had a similar problem with MusicMatch. Basically, when I would drag a folder in to MM to edit the tags, it would start playing the first file. I would hit "Stop" and then touch up the tags (adding year, etc). After making the changes, I would then drag the folder into emplode. It often would have the OLD tag info for Track #1. This is because MM didn't update track 1 yet. It was still thinking the track was inuse. So, sometimes I had to actually kill the MM program and THEN drag into emplode.
