Hi,

Why don't the rest of the Gracenote's CDDB genre tags show up in iTunes?

iTunes is only shows the CDDB metagenre tags (there's 20) and doesn't 
show any of the 251 subgenre tags. As the number of tracks in my iTunes 
library increases, I'm really starting to need those subgenre tags.

The CDDB also has a field for URRL's from Artist or Fan sites, Genre 
sites, movie sites for Soundtracks, etc.. It would be great if this 
field was also added so I could visit the artist's or fan site.

The Gracenote and its CDDB is noted in the credits for iTunes (see 
"about iTunes" under the iTunes logo on the menu bar.
