this is a placeholder and the NIP text is incomplete.

@staab sorry, I had this commit with the ISRC code thing. From that code you can get basically anything from a song. Trusting clients to get all the metadata right is a mistake, I think. I guess even the "title", "artist" and "album" are included here only as contextual hints, but ISRC should be authoritative.

The hardest part is how to get an ISRC code from a song except for their official search and third party websites which are all highly gated. It's also possible to get one from the Spotify API.

If DVMs weren't so bad I would say they could be used to do that job.

Everything is too hard.
