I very much appreciate illustrate in brining long awaited explorer integration of tag support in Windows 7. I am extremely grateful, well done *applause*
. In fact I am going to buy the Reference copy to show my support, even I don't need the extra features.
I was disappointed slightly to see the detail pane (bottom panel of explorer where it shows additional information for all files, with special tags for mp3, wma, etc) didn't have the same support among 3rd party audio files Windows don't recognise. I have discovered a registry hack which allows those to be supported:

After:
Just copy and paste the following lines into a new notepad txt file, modify .flac to whatever extension of audio files dbpoweramp has support Windows doesn't, and save and rename the extention as .reg and run.
