Tagging has come up several times.  The songs are tagged but usually the tagging doesn’t appear, at least for me, unless I take extra steps.  I don’t know why and I am not very knowledgeable about this stuff, but I’ll tell you what works for me.  First of all, I use a Mac and the tagging is done in iTunes. In order for the tagging to actually appear, I have to use a Doug’s applescript, “CD Text to CD info.”  At the time I got it some years ago, the program was free.

Enjoy!
