I use Foobar2000 v2 for tag editing + conversion + playback. All in one elegant solution.

Windows keeps Notepad around for similar reasons. Microsoft's pretty good about backward compatibility, unlike another company.

If you like it and prefer it, sorry, but it hasn't been getting feature updates for a long time. That includes updates to id3 tags.
I hear you. Old habits die hard I guess. Not only am I used to it, I have a lot of playlists created in it which I have no desire to re-create, etc. I've never really had a problem with it until this, which isn't a big deal.

I actually prefer WMP over the new Media player, and the formver Groove Music (which was especially horrible...).

I think you're wrong about Notepad though. I don't think it's a legacy application.

I tried a few apps, but now use latest foobar2000 for all tag editing, Inc pictures. It does just about everything I need.
