Knowing how long you have been playing the stream might be useful (I don't use iradio much, so I'm not sure), but we should definitely have a better value when it's buffering - probably how much it has buffered. > (2) rb sees new songs on radios that send that information (btw how is > that done? is radio stream a single stream that just has tags packet > now and then, or is it a cat of streams?)

Popping up a bubble when it changes shouldn't be too hard to do. > (3) if i drag an url onto rb and then play the radio it would discover > the title / genre. if I add the radio via menu it asks me to enter > them and won't even procede if i enter no title. i find that somewhat > inconsistent Yeah, you should probably be able to leave them blank and have RB fill them in. > (5) all radios in my list treat "genre" field as a sort of fuzzy space > delimited list. fuzzy because "Drum and Bass Jungle" is a list of two > entries. this clutters the genres list and more important makes it > pretty useless as each "genre" ends up representing singe radio.

I noticed that when updating the default stations - only three genres have multiple default stations in them. I'm not too sure what to do about it though.
