I made a several posts around the web looking for a component to get MP3 tags. I got a response and was directed by a developer to a component that acutally works.

You can find the component at http://infinitemonkeys.atrax.co.uk/ .

I have tested the component within Visual Basic 6 and it works very well and most importantly has a small foot print.

If you are going to give it a try and need it to do something I suggest you contact the developer. He is more than willing to add functionality to it and he expressed some interest in making it work on WMA files as well.
