  • libtunepimp Tunepimp library
    • A development library geared towards developers who wish to write their own MusicBrainz enabled tagging application. This library and the RDF web service have been depricated -- for details see WebService.

    • A client library written in Python which provides easy object oriented access to the MusicBrainz database using the XML Web Service.
  • libdiscid
    • A C library for creating MusicBrainz disc IDs from audio CDs.
  • XML Web Service MusicBrainz web service
    • The new, REST-based webservice API for direct access to MusicBrainz data (Please review the libraries above before writing your own implementation). This web service should be used for all new development.
