Oh, and I forgot to mention.  Windows Media Player did use the POPM frame prior to version 10.  Sure makes you wonder about the originality of their idea in the patent.

Question:
Why isn't there a "rating" tag under ID3v2?  IE 0-5 stars as with many of the players.  Sure its implemented in Itunes and their ipod, but what happens if someone wants to use a different device?  Also moving the music library is a pain because the ratings don't move with the files.   The ratings is how I create many lists, as well as mark songs for deletion later (1 star).  I think this would be well worth 3 bits in the header.
