Can't even remember what the use case was back then... mostly just use Spotify now anyway.

oh, bother. I got fooled by a spammer doing the thread resurrection, even though I wasn't fooled enough to actually let their post through. Duh.

when I tried accessing a network music share from my phone, it downloaded the file I wanted to play to my phone instead. So I gave up. Plus my phone has shitty earbuds anyway.  :-[
