+The get_audio_metadata function is a Python utility that retrieves two key pieces of information 
+from audio files: 
+1. the length of the audio in seconds and 
+2. its complete metadata (like album, title, artist, genre, date). 
+It uses pydub for calculating the audio duration and mutagen for extracting metadata.
