It looks like WQXR is now serving metadata "out of band".
Just like moOde, my RadioDroid app declares WQXR is streaming "Theme and Variations, Op. 42-Erich Wolfgang Korngold" no matter what the current selection is. OTOH, using a web browser to listen to WQXR via it's website's "Listen Now" gets one the correct metadata ("Schumann's Rhenish Symphony" at this moment, for example).
Looking around a bit, I've found the metadata is now accessible via http://api.wnyc.org/api/v1/whats_on/wqxr/ and the response is
a big JSON hairball. Change the "wqxr" in this api to whichever channel of theirs you're interested in.
