Music Metadata Parser

music-metadata is a robust and comprehensive JavaScript library for parsing audio file metadata in Node.js and browser environments (with appropriate bundlers). It supports an extensive array of audio formats including MP3, MP4, FLAC, Ogg, WAV, and AIFF, and extracts detailed metadata such as ID3v1, ID3v2, APE, Vorbis, and iTunes/MP4 tags. The current stable version is 11.12.3, with regular patch and minor releases addressing bugs, enhancing features, and updating internal dependencies. Key differentiators include its broad format and tag support, efficient streaming capabilities for handling large audio files, a modern promise-based API for asynchronous workflows, and cross-platform compatibility. It primarily operates as an ECMAScript Module (ESM) and requires Node.js version 18 or newer.
