You're using track instead of ref.

Works fine here:

[emh at giediprime /tmp]$ cat test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python

import TagLib

ref = TagLib.MPEGFile('a.mp3')
tag = ref.ID3v2Tag(True)
print tag.genre()
tag.setGenre('urfurf')
ref.save()

[emh at giediprime /tmp]$ ./test.py
blabla
[emh at giediprime /tmp]$ ./test.py
urfurf
[emh at giediprime /tmp]$

Our mail server times out on SMTP against ktown.kde.org. We're having
problems with timeouts against some other servers too. I'm not sure
what's causing it and haven't gotten around to debug it yet.
