I don't have an explanation (yet) but I found that ogg tags encoded in
UTF-8 with Japanese characters are working fine in Android, mp3 with the
same tags are not.

I used 3 or 4 different player and all have the same issue. From the
post above it looks like it's caused by a core library.

Solution: just encode everything in ogg format ;)
