Not by intent. They're what are supposed to be standard ID3v2.4 tags, 
in the comment field. iTunes says they are, and so does a 
freestanding tag editor (MP3 ID3X). I tried converting them to 2.2 
and 1.1, and doing all the translations that iTunes offers 
(ISO->Latin, Latin->ISL, reverse unicode). The prob started, though, 
when iTunes went to version 6.

Thanks for tweaking the script, Jordan, but I'd really like to figure 
out what happened.

And for some reason, the iTunes store doesn't pick up the genre. And 
it's still speaking hex.
