Is meta data in files some standard, so that the meta data in an mp3 file
is similar to a word process file? I have a hunch this is not going to
help you.. as it's completely different....

Zip format is used for Open/Libre Office files, compiled Java classes and so on, and goes back a long way (mid 80s).

I'm sure that libraries exist for handling newer formats like MP3. However wrapping all possible container/dataset formats in a standard framework would be difficult, since there's going to be little commonality of what metadata is available for each.
