Hi Graham,
This is true for ID3 version 1, but for version 2.x the tags live at
the beginning of the file.
I'm not too worried about not supporting ID3 version 1.
Cheers,

I think the basic problem is that the ID3 tags are appended to the
end of the audio data in the file, so to read them you either have
to download all of the file or somehow request the header, figure
out the offset then request the data at the end, which might not
even be possible.
