Oh yes, I Forgot about the "I" key. I Just remember seeing on some skins that you did not need to do that. "Shade" has a view that shows the "Review" part of the .nfo file at the "album" level.
The main reason I would say to stick the internal XBMC way of displaying "comments/review" ".nfo" is due to the fact that not all audio file formats have a "comments" ID3 tag to read from. And at the "song" level it would not really be needed anyway. Would be nice. But might just be over kill.
Here is one of my "album" .nfo files.
As long as an "album.nfo" has a <review> line with stuff in it, when the album is scrapped it shows up.
But then again. Who am I to ague, Can't hurt to have it and see what it turns out like. I Am just thankfull that you are coding it up in the first place.
Again, thanks for adding this.
PS, I Will try camstudio, I Forgot about it. Did try "Fraps". But 1920x1200 is not fun for some reason. Funny, Works great on games at the same res.

<review>Alan Silvestri's score to the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger blockbuster Predator remains a quintessential example of Reagan-era action movie music. A sensory assault fueled by eruptions of horns, shrieking string arrangements, and swelling timpani, it also establishes the dominant sonic motifs that Silvestri would further hone on projects including Judge Dredd and Eraser. That said, this is a rather unremarkable soundtrack that's all style and no substance. Silvestri seizes on a handful of adequately ominous melodies and then piles on the percussion effects to underscore the growing danger posed by the Predator creature. It's ultimately interchangeable with dozens of other action scores, and recommended solely to serious aficionados of the genre.</review>
