See what song is being streamed to airtunes.

Is there a way maybe via logging or SNMP query, to find out what song is being played on airtunes? I checked out the airport MIB file on the doc site and have logging set to debug, but no luck.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.2)

The only way to find out is to look at iTunes on the Mac that is connected to the Airport Express. The Airport Express itself has no idea what song is playing - the the Airport Express, it is only raw data.

Ok, that is what I was afraid of. We have an airport express in our office that we all take turns streaming music to and I was hoping to make some type of page or RSS stream that could show what songs have been played incase someone liked else wanted to see what song they just heard. I guess that would have to be pulled from each client.
