How to display song title and artist with .pls stream in WMP?

I stream music online by embedding the stream (.pls extension) on my website
using Windows Media Player. This is the code that I use:
<embed
allowScriptAccess="never"
allowNetworking="internal"
enableJavaScript="false"
showTracker="false"
showStatusBar="true"
autoStart="false"
type="application/x-mplayer2"
src="http://72.13.81.34/2531/listen.pls" name="MediaPlayer"
width="350"
height="50">
</embed>

Now someone wants to be able to see the song title and artist with each song
that is played through the stream. I know that this could easily be done if
it was just a playlist of individual mp3 files but it's not. It's a
stream/shoutcast .pls file and I'mstarting to think that it's impossible
since I can't find anything on this online. The streaming host isn't much
help either.
