for example: it would be great if I could have the option supplement my local collection with an Rdio or Spotify subscription and have all of that available through a single interface

Looking at the code, I think it would be best if an actual plugin system was created. Right now the provided services are very intertwined into the rest of the application. If we were to pull it out it would be come a lot easier to add more functionality.

@Lugoues :+1: on plugins, I definitely agree.

It doesn't sound like this project is actively maintained at the moment (though I don't think it's abandoned or anything), and I'm not a python guru, but I'd really be interested in seeing this go somewhere. I feel like this project has a lot of promise, the plugins thing could be huge., especially if plugins could hook into storage methods. See #9, #4, & #1.
