Music::Tag::MP3 - Plugin module for Music::Tag to get information from id3 tags

use Music::Tag
my $info = Music::Tag->new($filename, { quiet => 1 }, "MP3");
$info->get_info();
print "Artist is ", $info->artist;

Music::Tag::MP3 is used to read id3 tag information. It uses MP3::Tag to read id3v2 and id3 tags from mp3 files. As such, it's limitations are the same as MP3::Tag. It does not write id3v2.4 tags, causing it to have some trouble with unicode.

No values are required (except filename, which is usually provided on object creation).

Currently this includes bitrate, duration, frequency, stereo, bytes, codec, frames, vbr,
title, artist, album, track, comment, year and genre
title, artist, album, track, totaltracks, year, genre, disc, totaldiscs, label, releasedate, lyrics (using USLT), url (using WCOM), encoder (using TFLT), and picture (using apic).

ID3v2.4 is not read reliablly and can't be writen. Apic cover is unreliable in older versions of MP3::Tag.
