The thing is, pretty much every implemetation out there covers 1-147 and that's why Rockbox should as well. Anyway, ID3v2.3 is outdated, and the genre list wasn't really meant to be used. Notice that ID3v2.4 only includes 1-79[1] (Section 7.A). Should we remove 79-147 then? ID3 is hardly an official standard (not even "official" if you ask me), certainly ID3v1 isn't. The genres 1-147 are accepted by all the tools I know, and I see no reason why Rockbox should leave out some on purpose. That'd just be stupid. Besides, there are some of the >125 ones that make sense. In my eyes, lacking these genres is a bug that should be fixed. > I'm also damn happy not to use winamp anymore!!! If that's because of this issue, I suggest you team up with this guy[2] and take on AOL, then.
