[icecast] winamp >2.75 -answer on song titles // use_meta_data-

[Ben]

All I can tell you is that I've been unable to ever get meta_data to
stream, and the question I sent about it a week or two ago has gone
unanswered.

I never actually checked that I was using WinAmp 2.75, but I do know that
whatever version of winamp I *was* using could stream metadata from other
sites.
