"Permission denied @ sys_fail2 (Err no::EACCES)" if reading id3 from file just before moving the file #61

@illtellyoulater

Description

@illtellyoulater
song = "song.mp3"
artist = "artist name"

Mp3Info.open(song) { |mp3info|
  puts mp3info 
  # correctly shows info
}

Dir.mkdir(artist) unless File.exists?(artist)
File.rename("./#{song}", "./#{artist}/#{song}" 
# moving file to a subfolder named according to artist name

Last command outputs:

in `rename': Permission denied @ sys_fail2 (Err no::EACCES)

If I remove the MP3Info block completely everything works and I see no errors.
Same if I use Mp3Info on the file after moving the file to the new folder.

Can it be due to the file still being in use by Mp3Info when trying to move it?

Don't know if it's related to #41

How to fix this?
Thanks
