## ID3 Tags

ExifTool extracts ID3 information from MP3, MPEG, AIFF, OGG, FLAC, APE and RealAudio files. ID3v2 tags which support multiple languages (ie. Comment and Lyrics) are extracted by specifying the tag name, followed by a dash ('-'), then a 3-character ISO 639-2 language code (ie. "Comment-spa"). See http://www.id3.org/ for the official ID3 specification and http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php for a list of ISO 639-2 language codes.
