Hi Mayk

The project has now moved to gnome.org, so I am forwarding my reply to 
the new mailing list.

EasyTAG from 2.1.8 uses TagLib for support of MP4/AAC files, due to 
incompatible licensing between EasyTAG and libmp4v2. Unfortunately, only 
the generic tags are available from the TagLib C API, so unless the C 
API of TagLib is improved (or there is a library that can replace the 
functionality of libmp4v2) there is no easy way to get the full set of 
tags for MP4/AAC files.
