I want to create a program that converts mp3's to other formats. I wanted to know if anyone had any information on how mp3's are made and if there are any resources out there that I could use to learn the internals of an mp3 and other music files.

Thanks

Probably the best place to start. It explains the format of the different TAG versions, and has code implementing the stuff in serveral languages.

Does anybody know of a program that can look at the binary of files?
