Comment (by bat999):

 "Is it the case that the id tag is not properly built?"
 Hi
 There are several id3 tag versions.
 By default FFmpeg uses id3v2.3
 Maybe Winamp and mp3tag can't recognize this version.

 Try adding "-write_id3v1 1" to your command to write the id3v1 tag as well
 as the id3v2.3 tag.
 Then test it with Winamp and mp3tag.

 ffmpeg -i "Bad Medicine.flac" -qscale:a 2 -write_id3v1 1 test.mp3
