## Description

Replaces the GetID3 library used in PowerPress with an older version 1.9.3. for 
podcast websites using older versions of PHP.

This plugin was intended for podcasters hosting on sites with PHP 5.3 or older. 
If you still require this plugin we strongy encourage you to contact your web hosting
and have your version of PHP upgraded.

If you have PHP 5.4 or newer, you no longer need this plugin.

If you have WordPress version 5.1 or newer, you no longer need this plugin.

If you are using WordPress 5.1+ this plugin will not use the included outdated version
of getID3 library and instead use the PowerPress default which is now the getid3
library packaged within WordPress.
