Bug Description

python-mutagen version 1.14-1:

I have an mp3 file that contains id3 tag in WINDOWS-1251 encoding (see attached). When I convert the file's encoding into UNICODE, using mid3iconv program, the resulting file contains all letters as question marks (checked using hex editor in the mp3 file itself). It is notable, that in debug mode the program shows all the tags properly:

$ mid3iconv -e WINDOWS-1251 -d windows1251.mp3
Updating windows1251.mp3

The resulting encoding is utf-16.
I've noticed that COMM isn't converted and I've opened a bug report [1] for that.
Everythign else looks as expected.
