Comment 3 for bug 74253

The following blog post (in Russian):

http://libc6.blogspot.com/2007/01/id3v1-id3v2-mp3-russian-cyrillic-tags.html

discusses various workarounds to fix encoding; unfortunately all those rely on re-encoding ID3 tags stored in a file. Obviously this won't work for a mp3 streaming/radio.

(PS: why importance is low? do you think non-english users aren't first class users?)
