That way, we would stick to "official" publications. I'm pretty sure that winamp's gcomplete genre list wouldn't be accepted in a RFC... I'm also damn happy not to use winamp anymore!!! fred claus wrote: > The genre we are talking about has the number 133. > > So the "de facto" standard seemed to be set by some people at Winamp. > So it would be interesting to ask the people over there "who invented > such a genre?" > > By the way at <http://www.id3.org/id3v2.3.0.txt> the genre list stops at > 125, before the "incriminated" genre. > > I also found sort of a "history" of the ID3v1 genres at > <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pjrcmp3/message/55> > where it is stated that genres 116 - 141 have been introduced through > Winamp 1.90 around April 13, 1998 (April again :-/). > > <http://members.fortunecity.com/mp3live1/htms/winampnew.htm> > Shows a old changelog of Winamp so these genres have certainly been > added in the versions 1.81 or 1.82.
