    copied!<p>I used <a href="http://eyed3.nicfit.net/" rel="noreferrer">eyeD3</a> the other day with a lot of success. I found that it could add artwork to the ID3 tag which the other modules I looked at couldn't. You'll have to download the tar and execute <code>python setup.py install</code> from the source folder. </p> <p>Relevant examples from the website are below.</p> <p>Reading the contents of an mp3 file containing either v1 or v2 tag info:</p> <pre><code> import eyeD3 tag = eyeD3.Tag() tag.link("/some/file.mp3") print tag.getArtist() print tag.getAlbum() print tag.getTitle() </code></pre> <p>Read an mp3 file (track length, bitrate, etc.) and access it's tag:</p> <pre><code>if eyeD3.isMp3File(f): audioFile = eyeD3.Mp3AudioFile(f) tag = audioFile.getTag() </code></pre> <p>Specific tag versions can be selected:</p> <pre><code> tag.link("/some/file.mp3", eyeD3.ID3_V2) tag.link("/some/file.mp3", eyeD3.ID3_V1) tag.link("/some/file.mp3", eyeD3.ID3_ANY_VERSION) # The default. </code></pre> <p>Or you can iterate over the raw frames:</p> <pre><code> tag = eyeD3.Tag() tag.link("/some/file.mp3") for frame in tag.frames: print frame </code></pre> <p>Once a tag is linked to a file it can be modified and saved:</p> <pre><code> tag.setArtist(u"Cro-Mags") tag.setAlbum(u"Age of Quarrel") tag.update() </code></pre> <p>If the tag linked in was v2 and you'd like to save it as v1:</p> <pre><code> tag.update(eyeD3.ID3_V1_1) </code></pre> <p>Read in a tag and remove it from the file:</p> <pre><code> tag.link("/some/file.mp3") tag.remove() tag.update() </code></pre> <p>Add a new tag:</p> <pre><code> tag = eyeD3.Tag() tag.link('/some/file.mp3') # no tag in this file, link returned False tag.header.setVersion(eyeD3.ID3_V2_3) tag.setArtist('Fugazi') tag.update() </code></pre>
