It's looking like taglib is the way to go, as it is used by many more
applications than amarok, including JuK and even some of the KFileMetaInfo
plugins. I hear MusicBrainz may be adding support for it as well.
Taglib is also actively maintained, so if for some reason it doesn't read a
tag from a file, please file a bug on bugs.kde.org, and you can also use the
taglib-devel mailing list for taglib discussion.
