Use fopen, then fread then fclose. :)

You can then advance to the Cocoa framework; unfortunately I don't have
the documents here for reference, but you should try looking at
NSFileManager and NSFileHandle.

ID3 and ID3v2 tags are just plain text-strings stored in either the
beginning or the end of the MP3 file.
-Search google for the full specification on it.


Love,
Jens
