What's the point?
=================
The ProppFrexx Tagger is a standalone meta data editor which can be used 
to edit any available TAG data (ID3v1/v2, OGG Vorbis, APE, WMA, ASF, M4A, 
iTunes, AIFF, OPUS, RIFF INFO, BWF BEXT and CART etc.) within your audio files.
This not only allows you to maintain any standard TAGs (like Artist, Title, 
Composer, ISRC, Grouping, Mood, Genre, CoverArt etc.), but also gives you 
the ability to pre-define cue- or hook-points, volume envelops, track/voice 
inserts etc.
Beside storing the meta data directly within your audio file, the ProppFrexx 
Tagger also allows you to save separate meta data files along with the audio
(if you don't want to make any modification to your source files).

=======
The ProppFrexx Tagger application is free. You can freely distribute and use it.
No license is required. But all files must remain intact and unmodified.
Deassembling of any portion of this software is prohibited.
