Ripping can be fun once in a while. Maybe you could start something like the HVSC RipCompo (http://demodungeon.com/ripcompo/).
- Keep the initial ID at all costs. Essential for sanity checking, and nice to get a hint if you view the file as a hexdump. Maybe TED1 where 1 indicates the revision number.
- please don't do things like "init==0 means BASIC". This is not orthogonal and we have enough flag bits anyhow.
- speed: can't we just do the same as on C64? Or is there something wrong with $FF00/01 I don't know about?
- there are a number of c64-tunes which have a special call for multispeed-play, too. we could just look what HVSC does. Same for digis.
- what about type flag. Are there TED revisions which sound remarkably different (like 6581/8580)?
- reloc startpage: yes, please!
- reserved? well, we have the revision number and the offset...
and please keep the SID stuff out of it. Make a new file format for it, if you are really bored  Otherwise I would say, those few tunes (which don't exist yet officially) can be easily preserved with emulators...
