Is 12:15 acceptable to everyone as a good way to write a duration of 
12minutes 15 seconds in your respective native languages?  I suppose that 
it's ambiguous and could mean "12 hours 15 minutes", but in the context of 
CD tracks (which is most of what Apache::MP3 is used for), it's fairly 
clear from context that it doesn't mean that.  (I suppose ":12:15" doesn't 
have this problem, but it looks very odd.)

I'll go with 00:12:15, even hardcoding '00:'.
