Re: iPhone app that will display these QMIDI lyrics?
Awesome...
You might want to look up the synchronized vs. unsynchronized issues with iTunes lyrics display. I spent a few hours trolling the Internet trying to track this issue down... It's pretty crazy out there!
The vast majority of iPhone apps designed for lyric display expect to see the original version, then they go off to the web and retrieve the lyrics. Obviously, this doesn't work with user created music!
Any chance of a macro that can add the new tags (I'm hoping this won't invalidate the current tags... It will be a pain to have to have identical files in two formats for different use!) to an entire folder in one go?
For those of us with hundreds (or thousands!) of lyric MP3's, it is going to be quite a task if they have to be done one by one... I am imagining all I need to do, one by one is open them in the forthcoming version, and do a 'replace' on the export, right?
And, to reiterate the above: Will the MP3 be able to contain BOTH types of tags at the same time? Housekeeping hundreds of MP3's with identical names but different tags is going to be a nightmare!

Awesome! Bruno, you are the man!
Are you able to detail yet whether synced lyrics (where each word gets the highlight) or un-synced (where each line gets the highlight - I hope I'm using the right terms) will run under iTunes/Music correctly?
Re: iPhone app that will display these QMIDI lyrics?
Ooh... that's not good. Can you bluetooth 'page' the lyrics, or do you have to stop playing to scroll the screen down?
If this is not going to work, do you know of an app that WILL read your iTunes library, but display synced lyrics? I know that QMIDI does this on a laptop, but I mean hopefully an iPhone or iPad?
This is a definite shortcoming in iTunes... Does it allow add-ons, plug-ins, etc.?
In the meantime, please don't give up on the iTunes tags. I guess hand-scrolling is better than nothing at all..!
