Would it be possible to have YAC Reader/Library be compatible with Comic Rack and/or Comicbook Lover tags? I don't know about anyone else, but I have about 700+ Gigs of comics already tagged with the aforementioned metadata. Normally I wouldn't mind tagging it all again with YAC Reader compatible data, but the YAC library scraper can be very tedious and time consuming... couple that with the fact that the data is not actually being written to the comic files and the entire task is very frustrating. It would be awesome if the YAC could read that metadata that is already there... Please?
