Possible Features

I was just going through the feature request forum and came up with a few potential features in addition to the other cloud services.

• going off the GPS, at the very least we could find what other people are playing near you and have the stream URL transferred so nearby users can listen to the same song even if it's on different servers. They would only be able to stream and not cache.
• For songs without lyrics in their tag, we could find a lyrics site with a simple API and search by song name
• include a big selection of streaming radio stations such as with streamfinder.com (https://docs.google.com/View?id=dd6w2634_11c59vmrfs) or shoutcast.com (http://dev.aol.com/SHOUTcast/documentation#15)

The only thing that worries me is letting people listen to music that they don't own. We'll have to look into the legalities of that, I guess. Other than that, good ideas.

Breaking this out into a couple separate feature requests. I'm still not sure about the GPS thing, even if there were no legal issues, it seems like we would only be using GPS just to add another sensor. Maybe at some point in the future we could build a web service to show what people are listening to around the world (?) - that seems out of the scope of this project though.
