You have to download the M3U file first. It's just a text file, read it line by line. Each line will have a link which you can read in your media player.

Use something like this,

public ArrayList<String> readURLs(String url) {             
        if(url == null) return null;
        ArrayList<String> allURls = new ArrayList<String>();
        try {

            URL urls = new URL(url);
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(urls
                    .openStream()));
            String str;
            while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
                allURls.add(str);
            }
            in.close();
            return allURls ;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            return null;
        } 
    }
