Invoked each time new ID3 data is available for an MP3 file that you load using
Sound.attachSound() or Sound.loadSound(). This handler provides access to ID3 data
without polling. If both ID3 1.0 and ID3 2.0 tags are present in a file, this handler is called
twice.

song1.mp3 to an instance of the
DataGrid component. Add a DataGrid with the instance name
id3_dg to your document,
and add the following ActionScript to your FLA or AS file:
import mx.controls.gridclasses.DataGridColumn;
var id3_dg:mx.controls.DataGrid;
id3_dg.move(0, 0);
id3_dg.setSize(Stage.width, Stage.height);
var property_dgc:DataGridColumn = id3_dg.addColumn(new
DataGridColumn("property"));
