The issue is that it's not supported across the board in the same manner that meta-data embedded in an MP3 file is. So if you put meta-data into your WAV file, don't expect many playback devices or applications to make use of it -- not in the way that your expectations are met with meta-data in.

WAV audio files can hold several metadata types. These metadata types were introduced over the years into the WAV format, which is extensible by nature.

WAV is based on the Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF), and made of chunks of data. Contrary to popular misconception, adding metadata to WAV files does not break the format. Any well-behaved WAV reader is able to handle every WAV file even if it doesn't understand all the chunks it contains, in which case it simply ignores them. The following is a description of the different WAV metadata types, and the software that support them. INFO List Chunk The original WAV specification which was published in 1991 defined an INFO List Chunk that can store information about the file such as Title, Artist, and Genre.

Broadcast Audio Extension Chunk In 1997 the European Broadcast Union published the specification of the Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) for the seamless exchange of audio material between different broadcast environments and between equipment based on different computer platforms. BWF is essentially a WAV file with a Broadcast Audio Extension chunk (Bext) that can store metadata. ID3v2 Tag ID3v2 tag, which was introduced in 1998 and originally designed for MP3 files, can be written by some software into WAV files. Due to lack of standard, three ways for writing ID3v2 tag into WAV files emerged by different software, which cause a compatibility problem. XMP The specification for Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP), which was introduced by Adobe in 2001 and is now commonly used in JPEG images, also defines a way to write it into WAV files. IXML iXML is an XML based metadata format designed for BWF files.

It is more flexible than the Broadcast Audio Extension chunk and can hold more information. It was introduced in 2004. Cart Chunk Cart Chunk is a metadata format which was designed for WAV files used in the radio industry. It was formally ratified as a standard in 2002 by the Audio Engineering Society (AES). ISRC In 2012 the European Broadcast Union published a specification for the Carriage of Identifiers in the BWF. This specification defines a method for embedding ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) in BWF files.

ISRC is used for uniquely identifying sound recordings and music video recordings. WAV & BWF Metadata Software List of software that support WAV & BWF metadata.
