So if you writing ID3v1 is fine with you, you will either want to remove the ID3v2 tag (MP3::Info can do that for you), or make sure that when you are reading the data back, you read back the right version (get_mp3tag lets you select which one).
Also, I don't know why the info is not getting from iTunes into the ID3 tags. It should. Maybe it is that you are looking for the ID3v1 tag and it is in the ID3v2 tag? It can have both (ID3v1 is at the end of the file, ID3v2 at or near the beginning), and for most apps, the ID3v2 will override the ID3v1. iTunes defaults to writing ID3v2.2.0, IIRC (and I believe there is no way to change that, though you can tell iTunes to convert the tags to another version, though I am almost certain iTunes is buggy in this conversion
