From your question, it sounds like you already have figured out how to use http to grab the relevant byte range. I don't know anything about ID3 tags but if they are at the head of the file, then you just need to get the head, if they are at the tail, then just get the tail. Save the relevant byte ranges as files locally on a directory structure that is based on the URL so that http:/mess-o-mp3.com/content/this.mp3 would map to/mess-o-mp3.com/content/this.mp3. If necessary append or prepend dummy mp3 file so that existing ID3v2 libraries that are designed to read local files can read the ID3 tags. Then just run the "existing ID3v2 library" against the file tree that you have just built, and translate the output from describing the contents of the file system to describing the contents of the Internet.
All I know is from when I went to Microsoft for a meeting once, and they took us on a boat ride past Gates' house. We boarded the boat in Kirkland, and it didn't seem very far from the dock to Gates' house.

_raw_ sewage is sewage that hasn't been through a digester ( where bacteria digest it ) an aerator which supplys oxygen to said bacteria,and a settling pond. There is a fair amount of heat involved. Sewage that has been through this process is referred to as drinking water, except for the solid part, known as sludge.
I can't remember whether it was the growing up on a dairy farm, or all the civil engineers in the family that rubbed that off on me.
Hmm... Dam those (near) homophones. Must come from living down the road from a "Loose Slots at Harold's Club" sign growing up. Read aloud it sounded like "Lose Lots at Harold's club". I should know better than mentioning spelling or usage late at night. Well you know what they say about ICBMs.
This apparatus was profound, not because of its small size, but because it could be used convertly, to time the ball on a spinning roulette table. This was an important contribution to the notion of Existential Technology, e.g. technology of self-determination of the individual free spirit, in one of the most unfree environments this side of a prison, namely the environment of a gambling casino. It was quite remarkable that the free will of the individual can still prevail amid the repression and surveillance under the watchful eye of organized crime.
I didn't say anything about "always losing" I just said that I didn't understand "why anybody would voluntarily play a game where they knew they were going to loose." If you can influence or predict the outcome, then that's an entirely different matter, but the casinos disallow that, and are famous for it. If the casinos think that choosing to bet or to not bet is influencing rather than predicting the outcome ( and from their point of view it may be that you are influencing ) and ban it, then they are proscribing the betting behavior ( knowing when tobet big, bet small, or quit ) that you attribute to good gamblers. Anyway, what's this have to do with opportunity costs? Is it just the the costs of a bet when you are at a hot black jack table are lower than at a table with a shoe full of the wrong cards ? That may be true of games with a memory (blackjack) or games of skill (poker) but most casino games have neither. How would opportunity costs figure in a game where the odds were the same on every play, like roulette, the nominal topic here? I was thinking of the opportunity cost of spending the day at the casino rather than doing just about anything else. Who was it that said "when I got rich, I stopped taking naps because they were too expensive" ?
Well I have an understanding of the concept of opportunity costs and of economics, (spelling too !) but I'm not quite sure what you are getting at in this context.
Then again, I have no idea why anybody would voluntarily play a game where they knew they were going to loose. Life has enough of that sort of "fun" already.
The book you want to read is "eudaemonic pie" It's about some kids who did this back in the 70s. The article interviewed one of them. Roulette isn't random, you have to have a real ball released at a real time and place at a real velocity. Same for the wheel.
Every computer store on Fifth avenue except Comp USA and Datavision which is a block or two north on the other side of fifth ave. should be considered to be run by scammers and rip off artists. Don't buy anything at a store that has heaps of merchandise in the windows, really bright lights ( how bright? you will know what I mean when you see it ) and lots of hand lettered signs. Avoid buying computers or cameras at stores that also sell rugs and t-shirts. 47th Street Photo went out of business years ago. The web store is something else. New York city is full of stores that specialize in selling dubious overpriced cameras and computers to tourists, and lots of them are on fifth avenue and times square. Stay away from canal street, unless you want a counterfit watch
Best buy, CompUsa , and Circuit City branches are just like Best buy, CompUsa , and Circuit City branches other places.
J and R is pretty good, they are fair , won't rip you off , and they will ship stuff for you so won't need to pay the sales tax. They do a lot of business shipping out of the country from what I hear. They also get a lot of high end close out deals on laptops.
The Apple store is good, also look into Tekserve, considered by many to be the best Apple shop on earth.
Adorama and B and H photo may have something for you as well, they all have web sites to check out.
TriState camera may be worth looking into , they are a notch below Adorama and B and H photo, but have good prices if you don't mind pushy. FYI, TriState, Adorama and B and H photo are closed on Friday afternoon and all day Saturday as well as any Jewish holidays.
The reason doctors' handwritting is hard to read is because a lot of it is in latin.
I used to use a Dauphin DTR1 with windows for pen on windows 3.1 . Amazingly enough it could read my handwriting better than I could. I haven't written in cursive for about 30 years and my printing is pretty awfull.
You know, I'm thinking that it would be fun to design a T-shirt that would set off these anti-counterfitting features. Or how about making up protest signs that would set off the anti-counterfitting features? "I'm sorry sir, every time we try to make a print of the protesters trashing MacDonald's, all we get is this black rectangle"
I for one am much more annoyed with junk mail than spam. Of course I seem to hardly get any spam or virus mail either. Spam is a lot easier to separate out than junk mail which is always disguised as a credit card statement or bill. Spam never gives you paper cuts. Spam is often more amusing. On the other hand, junk mail never sets off autoresponder loops.
