ABSTRACT:
A client connects to an Internet radio server to receive a data stream corresponding to an Internet radio station. Metadata is received on the Internet radio station data stream. In some cases some media data is also received on the Internet radio station data stream. Once the metadata is received, the client disconnects from the Internet radio server. The client determines when next metadata is going to be sent on the Internet radio station data stream, and reconnects to the Internet radio server before the next metadata is sent on the Internet radio station data stream. The steps of receiving the metadata, disconnecting from the Internet radio server, determining when the next metadata is going to be sent, and reconnecting to the Internet radio server may be performed repeatedly.
