The folks who gave you the Python Imaging Library (PIL) now
introduces yet another useful library:

The PythonWare Sound Toolkit (PST) reads sound files in a
variety of formats, and plays them on different hardware plat-
forms (currently Windows and Sun only).

The first, very rough, release is available from:

http://www.pythonware.com/

PST 0.1 is shipped under a Python-style license, and can be used
without fee also in commercial projects. For more info, see:

enjoy,
the PST development team

do you mean "why doesn't the Windows soundplayer
code that deals with MP3 work?" (we're working on that).

or do you have MP3's that are not properly identified by
the MpegSoundPlugin?

or did you just miss that it's an early development release?
(as implied by the version number and the release notes)
