Are you sure EasyTag doesn't support UTF-8?  I have some songs in Portuguese 
and the characters display fine.  Never asked why because I learn through 
solving problems, not looking into things that work fine.  Perhaps it is a 
preference setting?

Have you looked into Kid3.  That seems to have nice simultaneous support for 
different tag versions. I don't like it because once you have made some 
changes to a few files in a directory, saving is an all files in a directory 
or none choice, but it may work for you.

There are also command line tools like id3 and id3ed.  I have used them in 
scripts, and not sure what they support.
