From the developer page:
MP3Info is a little utility used to read and modify the ID3 tags of MP3 files. MP3Info can also display various technical aspects of an MP3 file including playing time, bit-rate, sampling frequency and other attributes in a pre-defined or user-specifiable output format.
This process requires the Apple Developer Tools to compile the source code.
Copy and paste the following code into a text document named 'compilemp3info'; make it executable; chmod 755 compilemp3info, then run it by typing ./compilemp3info. The code will download the mp3info source code, patch the code with the patch from MacPorts, then build and install.

[crarko adds: I only partially tested this. This is a nice little script that could be adapted to other projects if you wish to modify it. It was modified to use curl instead of wget since curl is installed by default in the system. I've mirrored the script code here. If it opens in your browser window just do a Save As... ]
