Edit on 2011-03-25:
foobar2000 v1.1.6 beta 2 is out.
  • foobar2000 now uses " / " string as multi-artist delimiter in ID3v2.3 artist fields.
  • Added an advanced preferences option to toggle between treating TPE2 as BAND or ALBUM ARTIST.

foobar2000 v1.1.6 beta 1 was just released.
  • Improved performance when playing very short tracks.
  • Improved tag compatibility with other software.
    • “Album artist” is mapped to ID3v2 TPE2 like in WMP/iTunes.
    • Support for iTunes “itunescompilation” tags, in MP3/ID3v2 and MP4.
    • ID3v2.3 tags are now written by default since version 2.4 seems to be widely ignored by software vendors.
    • Added support for multi-value WMA tags.
    • Special work-around for "AC/DC" artist in ID3v2.3.
  • Improved reading of MP3 encoding information headers written by alpha versions of LAME.
  • ReplayGain scanner now uses libebur128 for improved accuracy.

Improved performance when playing very short tracks.

I do benefit a lot from this improvement, since I am working intensively with such files, so thank you for that. However I am wondering how this performance gain has been achieved. Has the file opening process been optimized? But then this change would apply to all files, not only to the extremely short ones.

Regarding the ID3v2.3 vs. v2.4 discussion: I am not well informed what the differences between these two versions are. Is a comparison table available which lists for both the limitations I should be aware of, i.e. not accepted chars, limited tag capacity for text input etc?

Good idea. I am not well informed either (i.e. not at all) about the differences and am struggling to understand the points mentioned in this thread. I find it rather confusing.
