Hi!

I'm not a programmer so bear with me, this is related to taglib, so please 
read on althou I'm talking much about amaroK, I'll get to the taglib point at 
the end.

I've posted a bug on the music application Amarok here: 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137756

Short version of Bug
    Amarok 1.4.4 only read the first occurence of ARTIST tags in Ogg Vorbis
    files.

   vorbiscomment doumentation: http://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html

   In this documentation they encourage the use of several ARTIST tags if
   necessary, this is a very neat feature since much music is created as a
   collaboration between bands (ex. Linkin Park feat. Jay-Z)

But the amaroK devs closed the bug partly because they think this lack of 
feature should be related to taglib rather then amaroK (since amarok use 
taglib).

Should this be posted as a feature request for taglib, or should it stay as a 
amaroK bug?
