Read our [[Embedded Metadata|non-technical account with explanatory comics]] first.''' This document describes how to apply [[Nonweb Tagging|our non-web content guidelines]] to MP3s. MP3 embedded metadata is placed in [http://id3.org ID3] frames. Two of these will be used for embedding Creative Commons license claim metadata: '''WCOP''' (Copyright/Legal information) should include the license URL. For example, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/. '''WOAF''' (Official audio file webpage) should include the URL where the work metadata, including verification information, may be found. See [[Nonweb Tagging]] for information on verification metadata. Historically a single field, TCOP, has been used for both purposes. New applications may support the TCOP method for compatibility, but WCOP/WOAF are preferred for clarity. '''TCOP''' (Copyright Text) should include a human-readable license and license claim information. The contents of this frame are displayed by many programs in a "file info" window. Example value: <code>1995 Example Band. Licensed to the public under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/ verify at http://example.com/cclicenses.html</code> If "verify at" exists in TCOP, everything after it must be the metadata URL and the preceding link must be the license URL.
