:D Hello,

I was wondering if there was a code that would play a file of music,
when called upon?

Thanks.

Hi,

thank you for the link, but it's not what I was looking for. I do not
need to play the mp3 file. I need to be able to analyze it on the
backend; that is, to get its length in seconds, and possibly truncate it
(not necessary). I was doing it in Java so far. If I can't do this on
the backend, I can't switch to Ruby, which is what I would love to do.

Thanks.

What this says is they invented the degree to support the science that
has already been done.

Go get your online climatology degree and dazzle us with your
brilliance.

I'm saying that climatology is much like cryptology. Everything else
you claim I said was manufactured by your drug addled little brain.

You can get a cryptology degree online as well. Why don't you do that
and go back to Canada and hunt for Bigfoot?
