Is there some case when it's important to have lower case file extensions?

Thanks for the cool TI script, Bex.

Actually, I had a big problem once with someone once that would not work with the uppercase file extensions on mp3s. Can't remember what it was now, though--possibly something for my phone.

No, thank you! Tak, to be precise. Or something like that.

Crikey, I've been wondering that for such a long time. I can sleep easy now.

Yes, my Tagging Inconsistencies script has such node. It find tons of other things as well. Link in signature.

I've always wondered why it's desirable not to have upper-case file extensions. Presumably there is some reason?

Assuming there is, is there a script to find all the tracks with an upper case file extension - i.e. before you use this script?

Many thankis. [That was a typo but I think I'll leave it as it is!]

It feels great, doesn't it?
FYI little bugs are hardest to track
