title: Android - How to get metadata from a live audio stream/internet radio channel using url
body: <p>I am currently working on a music streaming/internet radio Android app, I really would appreciate if you could help me on this. Thanks in advance!</p>
  
  <p>I can play the music but I dont know how to get information such as currently playing song,album art,etc. It would really help my app if I can get these information.</p>
  
  <p>My question is, how would I know or where would I get the info on what song is currently playing? As I have noticed VLC can do it with given only a link.</p>
  
  <p>Here is a screenshot from vlc.</p>
