Cultured Perl: Fun with MP3 and Perl, Part 1

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-have-no-culture dept.

Ted writes "Every self-respecting computer and music fan needs to be able to manipulate MP3s -- the defacto standard for recreational digital music use. In this article, I'll look at ways to manage and manipulate MP3s (searching, tagging, renaming, commenting, etc.) using the autotag.pl application. I'll also take you through the application, illustrating how CPAN modules enable the application."

    MP3 is waaaaay too common. Even my grandmother can manipulate MP3's with PERL. Now, Ogg Vorbis, that's a TRUE geek's music format.

    Psst, Taco doesn't actually write the blurbs, he just copies the first paragraph of the article.

    Recently I was googling for neat tricks or hacks with Perl. This directory listing on Yahoo has some links to some REALLY good sites. Looking at the code of some of them, there are a lot of nifty things going on. I didn't quite figure out a few of them at first, until reading the author's comments. I reccommend it for any and all Perl programmers. It will really get you thinking!

    Simply brilliant. Definately Emmy-worthy. Possibly Oscar-worthy if it gets taken in by a big studio. That is simply the greatest work of American literature ever produced. It blew me away!

    Thank you very much for saying that. It keeps me from having to say it myself.
