Portions (fields) of song information are delimited by new line.
The result code of Y indicates a YouTube number. The result code of M indicates a MP3 URL.
If you give an invalid song number or otherwise make a mistake in calling this web page, you will get an error code of E. All other fields may have unpredictable or empty results or may not exist. You are not expected to attempt any processing after encountering the error code.
You may be tempted to use this number as a loop counter for single accesses to song information, making a series of different calls to this web page to collect all of the song information one song at a time. Doing so will result in a Denial of Sevice Attack on the server, which will prevent your player from working properly. Use the alternate supplied web page for gathering groups of song information in a single pass and then loop internally in your own software.
