S.R.: Metatogger is a tag editor for audio files (Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, M4A (AAC et ALAC) and WMA). WTI: Can you tell us what kind of software are Metatogger and Echosync and how did you come up with idea of creating them? I’ve always been in awe of the potential of computer engineering: I find programming self-rewarding - in the way that you don’t have to limit yourself to what others have created for you and can create something that really fits your own needs - and also fascinating because of the constant innovations in this field allowing you to keep improving things all the time. I am not a professional developer, I have learnt how to code by myself. ![]() S.R.: I have started developing Metatogger in 2005 and Echosync (ex-SyncToVHD) in 2010, on my own. WTI: When did you start developing Metatogger and Echosync and what motivated you to do it? We asked Sylvain, officially legal expert in IT law in a large French bank, to tell us more about his altruistic hobby. ![]()
