Hi,
Is there a official/endorsed metataging format for QOA?
With metatag I mean artist and title information etc.
While there is a handful of formats out there (I have been looking at ape-tag) it feels like QO* would make its own QOT format.

I don't really see the use case for metatags in QOA. It's not like you have your music library in this format or exchange QOA files on Napster. So, no plan to add this.

If I were to create a tagging format, it would be a simple key-value structure. Pretty much something like APE, actually :)

As far as I know, APE tags can be just appended to the end of a file, so that would work for QOA, too.

I am mostly asking because I have a dream of making a RaspberryPi Pico based iPod clone, and I want to use QOA as the main format for it (because I can).
One of the requirements I think is some sort of tag format for the audio files.
The parts needed I think would be a Pico, a small OLED, a SD card slot, some sort of battery and a PCB with touch sensor to mount it all to.
I also realize that I will never make it because of who I am and that retroPod exists for Android.
