Get id3v2 tags from url #19

Is it possible to download only the neccessary bytes to create the tags from an url? I'm trying to parse all my id3v2 tags in my google drive and I don't want to have to download every file first

I think that If you read the ID3V2 spec you will find that the tags exist in a certain location in the mp3 file (I believe it is in the beginning of the file) so if you download the max length of bytes ID3V2 supports, I think this library can read the tags for you. I haven't tried this but might as well give it a try.
