ID3v2 tags are a serious pain to deal with.  v1 tags are really simple
though.  I haven't found a reliable open source way to decode *any* ID3 tag
(v1 and all the v2 variants), but hopefully there is one out there
somewhere.

Should also check out the relatable/musicbrainz tech:

It actually analyses the *audio* and fingerprints it, so it handles any
audio files from any source.  The have a voting system for naming the
artists and tracks and such, and it looks a bit more accurate than CDDB.  I
tried out the example C++ code, and it seemed to work (identified some
untagged Bjork mp3s).  Just needs a Python wrapper.
