I think it'd be pretty cool if this action existed, returning a text string to Quicksilver. You could then act on it using, for example 'Large Type' or create a trigger to the same effect.

Not sure how easy this'd be without using an external tool to view the track's ID3 tag. Feel free to close if this isn't feasible.

It'd be pretty nice though :)

Some perl/python tools for reading tags:
