Another problem with emms-print-metadata.c is that it
doesn't seem to say anything about its own license.  It says
that ``GNU Emacs is free software'', but, --- as far as I
can see, --- the file is not actually part of GNU Emacs.

I actually thought about this the other day when I
considered borrowing it.

Since Jorgen has already done the complaining, maybe I get
to play nice guy and say thanks for writing it, Trent. :-)
It does its job (however poorly), and I can't find any
standard TagLib command-line tool.

Pun intended?
