Heheh, I actually did search the man pages, but I was searching for the 
tag string and not comment.

Thanks. It does answer my question about how sox writes comments and it 
appears sox writes the metadata in the comment block for aiff. I was 
hoping that the default comment was an ID3 comment tag, but this isn't the 
case. So, I'm still looking for a solution to write the metadata from a 
flac file to aiff files using the ID3 block rather than the comment 
block, so they could be read in itunes. I guess I'll have to use xld or 
max or itunes2flac on the mac to do it. I was really hoping I could do it 
on the command line in linux, but I can't find any command line utilities 
that will write metadata to the ID3 block in aiff files.

Thanks,

Trevor
