Guess you'd have to create a new DAM meta-service for the extraction of 
the ID3-tags; similar in the way the existing services do it for 
documents and images, see:
http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/?tx_terfe_pi1%5Bview%5D=search&no_cache=1&tx_terfe_pi1%5Bsword%5D=cc_meta

The extraction itself (and eventually injection) could be done with the 
PEAR-lib:

or probably better with getid, which supports more formats:
