The artist is 梶浦由記, which redirects to Yuki Kajiura on last.fm while still listing 梶浦由記 as the artist on the page. Using Yuki Kajiura as the artist redirects to the same page, that lists 梶浦由記 in the artist field on the page. This seems to be a proper redirect, and isn't the issue I'm having.

I tagged the track with the appropriate foreign-character artist name using the MusicBrainz Classic Tagger. When the file was saved, though, my computer reads, lists, and scrobbles the artist as being "?¶?f?1?". Obviously, that means I can't scrobble the track and have deleted it from my profile.

Should I bother making my computer read foreign characters (I don't know how, so if you say I should please give instructions)? Or would it be fine to just tag the artist as Yuki Kajiura since there is a proper redirect here on last.fm?

Any and all help would be appreciated.]]>
