Use io.Reader

[rwcarlsen]

Using the Go stdlib io.Reader interface instead of just file opening would make this package more flexible and more idiomatic.

I agree, but not sure how you would go about it as the underlying taglib api only reads from disk. It could write the io.Reader to a temp file to give to taglib but would have great performance characteristics. Any thoughts on how to do this in an efficient manner?

Hm - probably not worth the trouble then. You could rewrite taglib in go :P
