Why not use QuickTime? There is an example to be found inside the
Documentation of Xcode that shows you how to get all the MP3 tags
out of files using QT. It's a bit cryptic but it works well and
comes with every Mac...
<http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1135.html>
First of all it is Quicktime, so the amount of research and coding
needed to get anything working is 'non-trivial' :-(
Secondly, the url describes reading the properties from an ID3 tag.
Writing ID3 tags is another story, especially if you need control
over the ID3 tag version. As far as I've been able to see, there is
no proper way to do that using Quicktime (please correct me if I'm
wrong!).
Apple must have this code privately, since iTunes is able to read and
write ID3 tags just fine (well, not bug free, alas). It would be nice
if support for this would appear in QTKit.
