Thanks Shmoopi, this is a surprise as I thought that the iPhone SDK would disallow access. But your code works only if I know the bundle identifier. But if I do not know it, there is no way I can find out the bundle identifier of any app that is already installed in the device?
Anyway, I went to the iPhone 3.0 OS SDK page at
iPod Library Access - Get Ready for iPhone OS 3.0 - iPhone Developer Program
and it mentions
For example, you could create a trivia game that uses the metadata of the user’s songs. Improve on an arcade game by using a playlist as its soundtrack, or add the ability to listen to podcast lectures in a note taking app. You can make almost any app more enjoyable by bringing a user’s personal music and audio choices into your app.
