Ability to share a ShoutOut with a track via social media outlets.

Some of this has gone into latest release with addition of a ... button on the minimized currently playing UI which allows user to open share options dialog which will share a spotify link to track they are listening to with also a mention of ShoutOutPlay and a direct link to download the app on the app store. Will be available in 1.0.1 pending now.

Ok so I've gotten more ideas on how this could work. Use case:

  1. Friend wants to send you a fun shoutout of a track they want you to listen to.
  2. They record the shoutout, attach to a track, then they are able to share that track to a friend. It would send a special shoutoutplay link.
  3. You receive a push notification via app. ("David has sent you a shoutout, Listen now!") Viewing the notification takes you into the app where you can accept or deny the friends shoutout.
  4. Denying would just ignore it.
  5. Accepting would download the shoutout to the phone and add the track to an internally created playlist called "Shared" (or something like that) and take user immediately to the track with the shoutout and start to play it.

Users would also be able to share these special shoutoutplay links on social media to share with others, etc. Clicking on links would require user to download the app to play or direct user to the (soon to be) marketing website for the app to let them know about it.
