The sample file has correct ID3v2 tag, then second ID3v2 tag (values from this second tag overwrite values from the first, that is why MediaMonkey shows some "wrong" tags), then ID3v1 tag, then non-standard APETAG and then another ID3v1 tag at the end of the file. So the problem is not in the APETAG itself, but in this whole mess.

The problem could be resolved by specialized software for fixing such corrupted files before importing them to MediaMonkey. MP3Val ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/mp3val/ ) seems to do it.
