The API (you must know what that is) that is exposed in the client side
by whatever element you are using to perform the actual playback.

The data you want to fetch, of course.

That sounds like metadata, it can be in the stream itself, but it
depends on the stream type of course.

It's programmatic, you make it run as you see fit. Excessive polling
will tire you server though.

> i.e it's "get the name of a new song, get it's cover, show both" right? Does that mean it's multitasking, like, does it need WebWorkers or something?

Javascript is always multi-tasking. I don't have experience with
WebWorkers but you don't need them.

> How would you "poll for its status"? When?

If the interface won't emit any of the events I want to listen to, I
would set up an interval checking it's status every 500ms or 1s.
