An Mp3 Tage also known as an ID3 tag is a data container within an MP3 audio file stored in a prescribed format. This data commonly contains the Artist name, Song title, Year and Genre of the current audio file.  ID3 tags are the audio file data standard for MP3 files in active use by software and hardware developers around the world.
