Q: 

How can I open an mp3 file using Java/Groovy via a URL?

Does anyone have any useful advice/links to information about working with mp3 files in Groovy. I appreciate that this is just the same as working with Java libs, but wanted a simple solution to this problem:

  • I want to load an mp3 via a URL and interrogate it.
  • I'd like to test whether it exists and pull out the title, artist and default image if it's there.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Matt

A: 

try an ID3 library? I haven't tried this one from Sourceforge but it looks like the right thing.
