By geez that's a cracking idea. Some of my radio stations don't
broadcast individual tracks, some only broadcast 'shows' but others
broadcast everything. This would be a great feature. 

The problem, of course, is to get those data, the stream would need to
be fed and that information extracted from the stream - which would be a
download burden. AFAIK this is the way it works - the info is embedded
in the actual stream somewhere. Whether it can be fished out without
streaming the bulk of the data (the actual sounds), I don't know. But I
agree Pippin, this would be outstanding if possible. We're a bunch of
hounds, aren't we!
