Personal Data Stored In m4a files

Awesome Donkey:
I remember removing/changing the name and stuff added in the AAC files I bought from the iTunes Store YEARS ago manually with a hex editor. :D

No. I tried adding fields to MC to get them to show up but had no luck.

The main ones, out of many, that I want cleaned are:
apID
ownr
purd

It looks like MC's "Remove Tags" feature cleans them up.
I'd like to request that an option gets added to Remove Tags that allows users to exclude certain fields.
For example I would like to Remove tags on my entire music library except for the following:
Artist, Album Artist, Album, Date, Track #, Name.

~OHM~:
your asking for a very dangerous option!

Kind of, but it's already there. I can wipe all tags from my entire library with the click of a button.

Bill Kearney:
Apparently Apple embeds that crap into more than just the 'file' tags.  There are various tools to remove them out there.

This script looks to be an interesting one:

Atomic Parsley has long been useful for this and various other mpeg-based media formats.
