Implement other music services via the music app such as Bandcamp, spotify, soundcloud, Lan streaming, Owncloud, and next cloud.

I like Soundcloud, there is all the stuff from my band =)

So we had some bugs about adding streaming support [0].

We even had a working prototype of playing spotify streams through media-hub, although the library available for spotify was old and very crashy - we were trying to get the same one used in android from spotify but I don't think that ever happened. So instead our idea was to add owncloud/nextcloud music streaming first as there is already online accounts integration.

This would be a major redesign of the app and it's code to allow for pluggable providers - the idea was similar to the messaging-framework. We had some wireframe designs [1] (you guys should probably make a copy of this doc as it is owned by a deleted user :-) ).

Would be happy to go through this in more detail with anyone, if this is the direction the app takes.

Made a copy from this Google file =) - Well basically this looks already great for a future expansion/rewrite. I agree, we need streaming to be on par with other services that exist on Android/iPhone.
