Right now, we don't do that. Its just a simple MP3 file that lasts for as long as you are recording a station. The problem with parsing the song title is that firstly, not all stations support it, and secondly, a lot of stations will push the station name into the stream at periodic intervals. It would make cutting up a continuous stream into accurate individual songs quiet troublesome.

But for some well behaved stations, its doable, if people wanted it enough.
