I GOT THE SOLUTION!
FYI: I have a Sony Walkman NW-A25, which is an older model. With this model, the songs I've downloaded from YT need to be saved with the correct tag versions. Since my upgrading from the free MM-version to MM-Gold, I've been using the (wrong!) MP3 tag information (ID3v1 and v2.4), but these tags are incorrect for this Sony MP3 player. So, using MM-Gold, I changed the tags on all my songs on my SD-card to ID3v2.3 Tags, and voila, the genres are now displayed correctly on my Sony MP3 player again

.
To the community: if you are editing music, e.g. for your MP3 player, always first check which ID tag versions your MP3 player needs/requires so that all music data appears correctly in your MP3 player
