Assuming you mean to use the scripting language to process the data and enter it in the mysql db, it shouldn't be too hard. What exactly is the data it would have to read? I'm assuming at least title and artist. Also, is the information in the file name, or in id3 tags?

If you want to insert some info into a mysql database it's easyer to create a php script that does it for you.
