The best solution for this is probably to finish off the external- metadata-extractor branch, which was set aside earlier this year.
I've updated the branch to get it building with trunk, but there is still a bit of work to do (there may be conflicts with the branches from the pending silo, and maybe some tweaks to the AppArmor profiles).

Opened Music app and saw no music. Tailed mediascanner log, found it repeatedly scanning my music over and over. This causes high cpu, high IO, increased disk usage through logging and locks the database so Music app is unusable. The only way I could make Music appear was to issue:- stop mediascanner-2.0 Then re-open Music.
