Hi, I'm doing a similar thing in java tho, all I'm doing is trying to read the ID3 tag but from a streaming mp3...like from a shoutcast stream. I've been able to connect to the stream and read all the data but I cant seem to find the ID3 tag anywhere. Is the ID3 tag actually in the stream, or is it somewhere else. Winamp is able to display the track name and author name of a stream so it must be somewhere.

Thanks, cya.
