How do applications like Google Talk and the Last.fm desktop client access iTunes to get the current track that is playing? Is there a library to do this? I am wanting to make an application in C# that posts song information to my website. Any help is greatly appreciated.

UPDATE

I have some sample code over here to do this in C# using LinqPad https://stackoverflow.com/a/18246137/215752

Here you go : http://developer.apple.com/sdk/itunescomsdk.html

You need to register with apple of course.

Here is a link to some example code using C# and this COM API. There is also a brief "how to":

Thanks for the info! I swear I searched google for a few hours and came up with nothing.
Yeah, hard to find. The key word for google is COM as in iTunes COM API. Lots of interesting stuff should come up for you then.
