Additional Metadata about tinytag HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your suggestion. Those changes can easily be made, especially for:

info.audio_offset
info.bitrate
info.size
info.comment
info.sample_rate

But:

info.duration

is currently called length. I guess duration is less ambiguous. Maybe we should change the API as long as the library is young. (or keep both?)

info.audio_size

This is essentially info.size - info.audio_offset right?

info.genre

I don't really want to implement this, because this is only additional bloat, see the list of genres in in ID3 tags. But try to convince me if it's important to you 🐧

I didn't look into the genres, that does seem silly and I doubt many would ever use it, but if the goal was to be complete to spec than maybe somebody would want it. Better to wait until someone specifically asks.

Since you have length already I don't see a good reason to add or change to duration unless trying to match an official tag spec. Duration is more about time, so I could see that with adding the size attributes, it is slightly more clear what duration is compared to length.
