Cleans up track text

This script scans the Trackname, Artist and Album infomation downloaded from Gracenote's CDDB and removes problem characters that Windows appears to have issues with, putting an "_" in their place. Characters replaced are : } { , ' " ? & * ( ) # / \ < > and blank spaces. Read Me explains more, including the curious name of this script.
