.wav & .shn tags - hipkid33 - 07-09-2003

This may seem like a dumb question, but here goes. For those of us who appreciate lossless music, is there a way to "tag" .wav, .shn or any lossless format? Kind of like the .mp3 ID tags? If so, know any good software...possibly free?
What got me thinking about this is that Lance has his super cool radio goin' right? How cool would it be to be able to keep the filenames intact, but have a player read and display the "tag" for each file. Am I way off on this or what? It would also be great for archiving shows. If the filename got messed up or the .txt file was missing from a show, you could just look at the tag. What do you kids know/think.

Cheers!

Chad

there is no way to do it right now.

FLAC *might* be able to do it.
