Most of the files that are recognised by file are mpeg version 1, layer
III with CRC protection, i.e. they have the hex string 0xFFFA at offset
0, rather than 0xFFFB.

One of the files, Timon_&_Pumbaa_-_Can_You_Feel_The_Love_Tonight, is an
mpeg version 2, layer III, without CRC protection, that is, it has
0xFFF3 at offset 0.

shared-mime-info is only matching 0xFFFB, or ID-3 type two tags in order
to identify MP3s. It should also check for:

0xFFFA - mpeg v1, layer III (CRC protection)
0xFFF2 - mpeg v2, layer III (CRC protection)
0xFFF3 - mpeg v2, layer III (no CRC protection)

I wonder would it be possible for this fix to be included in a future
version?
