There is MPEG::ID3v2Tag, but it does not actually modify tags, and it
doesn't work wirh MacPerl (yet).  So it is out.  There is a new module
called MP3::Tag which supposedly does allow editing of ID3v2, but I have
not tried it.  I don't know if it will work with MacPerl or not, but you
are welcome to try and report back to me.  :-)

For those who care, there is an effort between the authors of my module
(me), the MP3::ID3v1Tag module, and the MP3::Tag module to possible
consolidate the three modules into one, or maybe at least make them work
together better.  Join the mp3-info-discuss list at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mp3-info/.

Also, I am currently doing a bunch of fixes and changes to MP3::Info, and
am planning on a new release RSN.  It won't include the capability to edit
ID3v2 tags, though it might possibly have a function to delete ID3v2 tags.
