extract id3 metadata from mp3s to display on tracks being played

dont think this is going to work unless the mp3s can be served with CORS headers, as the browser won't let us manipulate binary data that it deems unsafe.

could maybe proxy the requests for tracks somehow.. but would be a lot of bandwidth.

technically speaking we could do a script to process them all, store the metadata somewhere in local files and then only use those. save the bandwidth. and keeping that in mind i guess it doesn't need to be an online process at all, could just run a script on local directories of the releases

[dazld]

could also do that, might be a lot more data to send with the rest of the bundle though.

did a little googling for javascript id3 extractors, there are a few options around:
https://github.com/43081j/id3
https://github.com/aadsm/JavaScript-ID3-Reader
just a matter of trying to integrate it with the player somehow

yeah, they all depend on the data being served with CORS headers, or you can't do binary stuffs on them.
