Best library for audio file meta data?


I am looking for a library to read meta data from compressed and uncompressed audio files (i.e. mp3, ogg, etc.). In the past I have used libvorbis and id3lib, but I'm wondering if there are better libraries around? Ideally I would like a library that provides a common API to reading meta data from all the various formats. I realize more advanced libraries probably have id3lib and libvorbis as dependencies, and I don't mind that, I just would like to avoid having to write my own wrapper.

  • TagLib seems like a good candidate.
