Can't speak for amarok2, but in amarok1 I have have many folders with music
that I have imported from vinyl, therefore having no native tags. I have
entered the information on amarok and it has saved it, accessing it in future
with no problems. I didn't use any tool, just manually entered the static
info for the album, then individual track info. It must be stored in a db
somewhere. HTH
I believe "~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/collection.db" is the spot.
