Copy file attributes to other files

Question

with class Files "copy(Path source, Path target, CopyOption... options)" and CopyOption COPY ATTRIBUTES mp3 tags are easily copied.

But how can I transfer mp3 tags from e.g. file1.mp3 to file2.mp3 without creating new files or moving files?

Background: I resized .mp3 files and want to transfer the tags of the old files to the new files.

MP3 attributes are stored in ID3 tags inside the MP3 file. Files.copy() and Java's NIO2 API only works with file system attributes. — prunge, Mar 03 '14 at 22:08
You say you have mp3 tags on a class file. I would like to know how you think that is possible. — Hakanai, Mar 03 '14 at 22:12
I mean the tag "Rating WMP", that are stars you can rate a music file in Windows (7) — , Mar 04 '14 at 01:57

You might also have luck with the Java ID3 Tag Library

The library mp3agic seems like it may fit the bill. See its readme for examples of reading and updating the various ID3-version tags.
