I am not sure why this was added but I do not think we ever supported
mp2.. If I am correct, mp2 data is decoded using libtwolame
(http://packages.debian.org/libtwolame) which we never had binded for
OCaml.

The library's API does not seem to complicated, it could be a fun
project actually (spare time based for me unfortunately..)

True :-)

Yup, that should work, too.. Did you get any progress on it? There are
external decoders for files defined in our standard library, did you
noticed them?
