Specifically, if I get my application to read ID3 tags, will I be able to find out the decoded length of an audio file without going through and counting all the frames?
Unless I am incorrect, this is *not* the case. id3 tags don't contain this information as far as I know.
The exception is if the tag contains a TLEN frame; this is supposed to contain the length of the audio file in milliseconds, represented as a numeric string. This frame is not very common, though.
