You can have more than one of each picture type.  The content descriptor is
the text description.  The only exception to that is the Other and the 32x32
pixel icon picture types, type 0 and 1, respectively.  Those two types can
only exist once in the tag.

HTH,

Dale

The 2.3.0 standard says

  "There may be several pictures attached to one file, each in their
individual 'APIC' frame, but only one with the same content
descriptor".

Is the content descriptor the textual description field?  In other
words, no two pictures can be given the same description even if
they're given different picture types?

Regards,
Cody
