Best way to do it is to use QuickTime.
This article will give you a start, although it only specifies how to
*read* the tags, that combined with the QuickTime reference should
allow you to figure out how to write them.

I'm writing a program that needs to write the ID3 tags to audio files,
usually mp3s. For those that do not know, these are the tags that show
the artist, album, etc. in iTunes. So far, I have not found anything
built into the Cocoa frameworks for editing tags. It seems there are
basically two options, short of writing your own parser, using one of
the few java id3 libraries available or using the C++ id3lib.
If I cannot do it in Objective-C, in Cocoa, I am planning to use the
Java classes, as I know Java, but do not know C++. Before I started
doing this, I was wondering if anyone knew of a set of Objective-C
classes to use, or had any advice about the Java classes.
