AudioScrobbler or how to laugh at peoples' playlists
AudioScrobbler is a small plug-in for most popular media players (yes Nic, even WMP) which holds stats of the songs that you play. It can then suggest other similar artists to look for or eventually other AudioScrobbler users that have the same musical tastes as you (in case you want to have a chit-chat).
We started using it in the IRC channel ( irc.starchat.net - #3Dspotlight ) to have a musical snapshots of the users in there & decided we could bring it over to the forums.  AudioScrobbler TechSpot group In order to join the group, you have to ask & a current member will add you. To make things easier, give us your user name from the forums. Here's my playlist, in case you're wondering what's playing on Winamp right now (CLICK CLICK).

Who the hell is Don Ho? I consider myself fairly well musically 'educated' (bad term, really), but I've never heard of him...
No BeOS plugins, and the media player I use has no plugin API anyway. Just take my word for it - lots and lots of New Order, Orbital, Bomfunk MC's, Pet Shop Boys, and other electronic acts

 Don Ho is/(was?) a Hawaiian singer who had one major hit (many, many years ago) by the name of "Tiny Bubbles". I'm not surprised you've never heard of him. If you're not from the states and aren't older than dirt (like many of us), you probably wouldn't.

Mplayer & Xine are regarded as video players, even though they play mp3 files & as such there are no plug-ins available for them.

I wonder do either of the major BeOS players have enough access to playlist data through the plugin API's...
SoundPlay probably does, as it does have a complete third party web control frontend. Might look into a port of this..
