For example, I made a modified Last.fm mode for Shoutcast streams. I'll
rewrite it now, and hopefully it'll be more than a hack.
I haven't done much Emacs hacking before, so I can't really compare
Bongo with something else. Well, I guess Emacs in general is easy to
hack. But I think you're doing a great job.

OK. I'll write this fix, unless you already have something cooking.

I agree it makes sense. Obviously the mplayer and VLC teams also thought
so. Too bad there's no universal standard for this. (Or is there?)

I'm glad to hear that.
