      Can you explain what you mean by corrupt? If you mean corrupt it audially then you'll have to understand the mp3 format so that you don't render it unplayable. If you mean corrupt it so that you can't play it then you should be able to just write random bytes all over the place if you want. Particularly by the headers etc.


      I have no idea what I just said. But my intentions were sincere.
