I'll start with praise: After the various disappointments of Songbird ---even before dropping Linux support--- I soak up in GMB as a thirsty soul in holy water. Thanks to you Quentin and to every contributor.
I'd like to add tags to songs in a kind of folksonomy fashion. For example, a madrigal by Gesualdo could have: "classical", "madrigal", "vocal", "voices=5", "a capella" "language=italian", and so on; a piano piece by Morton Feldman could have: "classical", "piano", "solo", "date_of_composition=1952-xx-xx", etc. Should I use custom tags or multiple genre tags? Would there be any difference in terms of performance? (think of databases larger than 1TB) I'd like also ---if possible--- to conform to folksonomy/Musicbrainz standards.
