Bug description from Ubuntu bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/581113

When exporting an mp3 file that was previously imported to Audacity you get a
prompt to edit several values of the embedded ID3 tag including a value for the
year a track was released. But after saving this file you will find the value
for the year being deleted.

I use Audacity version 1.3.12 with Ubuntu 10.04, but I have experienced this
issue also in previous releases of Audacity.

To reproduce import an mp3 file with intact ID3 year property, then export this
file and check the tag properties with a tag editor or in Nautilus with
rightclick > properties > audio.

This happens because we force the frame for year to TYER. It's deprecated in
ID3v2.4 but if we don't use it, Windows Explorer and Windows Media Player can't
see the Year tag. I've done a patch (attached) to set the year frame on Linux
to the correct TDRC using ID3_FRAME_YEAR. Tested on Ubuntu 10.10 (Rhythmbox and
Nautilus can now see the Year tag) and on Win 7 (tag is still TYER). Mac people
said the Year tag is already seen correctly on iTunes/QT in Audacity-exported
MP3s so I suggest it should be left "as is" for Mac.

Writes both old and new year to tags...should fix both cases

Since ID3v2 allows for unrecognized tags, there's no reason not to write both
the old (TYER) and new (TDRC) tags.  This should provide the year to apps using
ID3v2.3 or ID3v2.4.

On quick scan, it looks fine to me. Please commit it, Leland.

And I think you're still a very trusted developer, so probably best to go ahead
and commit these and let QA get at them directly, without waiting for me or
Michael to review. (He and I are the only developers automatically added to the
cc list. 

Thanks for your help, Leland!

+1. Speeds things up. Everyone can still review the diffs.
