 We search for a sync only in the first 8kB (and in 0.6.2, this is even
 4 kB). So if your first 25 kB is bogus, then it won't find it.
 
 I'm not exactly sure what the best way to detect such broken mp3s is.
 Sure, we can increase buffer size, but then, yet a new mp3 will turn up...

+(Just clarifying, since I haven't read the docs yet) You take a 8(4)KB
+buffer from the beginning of a file/stream and use that to determine
+the media type (similar to gnome-vfs's method for mime-types)? And the
+issue is, if the stream type isn't found in that buffer, you error?
