I did notice something about this when looking at the documentation for the Yahoo widget. However, I'm not sure how to get this information. Do I have to do something special to get it out of the stream? I thought SlimServer did this automatically for WMA streams, but when I didn't see anything appear I assumed Sirius wasn't sending it out.
