Meta files contain info about the photo that can be entered by You.
When you shot the pic/where you shot it, lens settings etc etc etc. Or, in your case, Who the band is. The name of the song/album etc etc |

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that yes, they're harmless. A quick search did not turn up exactly which program is creating them. What are you using to play your MP3 files ? I think that's the one doing it, and you may be able to switch it off in the settings.
