Just a few suggestions on music channels, that I think should be worked on for MB.

Based on "the other guy", it should work fine with the API.

 

  • Songza
  • Rdio
  • Google Music
  • Spotify
  • Tunein
  • Vevo (this is technically a video channel though)

Just saying  ;)

There is now a TuneIn plugin for all that dont know. I have emailed tunein to try and get a partner id so we can get more features

Very happy about Tunein :)

 

Is Songza or Rdio complicated in their API, etc...? Just curious.

Songza has very intuitive playlist, super simple to use along with its concierge, etc... My guess would be that it,s simple but I could be wrong too... All I know is that in XBMC and Plex, Songza was implemented very fast after it was requested...

Cool, Any further on Spotify? I think that's still one of the more popular music streaming services available.

It will be a big big project and just haven't really looked in to it. Think will need to be a team effort.

If there's anything I can do to help just let me know. I recall @@Luke seemed to be quite confident it was possible and there are a couple of decent xbmc plugins that could be used for inspiration if needed.

The thing with the xbmc and ple x plugins they use a library that's in python there arnt any good libraries for c#.

 

The spotify api is good for basic tasks from what I can tell but I can't see how it fetches track details.

 

That's why they designed there sdk for more advanced things but as I say haven't really looked in to it.

Not knowing anything about this, what about the possibility of Grooveshark?  That would be at the top of the list for me.  :)
