id3v1 is exactly 128 bytes [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID3#Layout ]
In my copious free time, I might add id3v2 support, unless of course
some else does.

Well that would explain it then!
Has anyone had any experience with using http-range requests for the
metadata? How many bytes from the end does the metadata start?

You're closing the stream before the metadata arrives.
Tika supports ID3v1 which is at the end of the file, not the
beginning.

I'm trying to get MP3 Metadata without downloading an entire MP3.
I've setup a FilterInputStream which throws an
InterruptedIOException after a given amount of a file is downloaded.
If I point this at an HTML page it works - I can get the title from
the metadata.
If I point it at an MP3 file it doesn't give me any metadata at all
(except the Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY which I set), even if I set
the download length to be just less than the length of the file. If
I download the whole file it works
(JPGs don't seem to work either)
Why is this so? My understanding was that Tika would work with
streams?
