Summary0005701: Better handling of NET Radio Links
DescriptionNew NET Radio sub tree entry "User Directory" whic will list all user radio Bookmarks.

Adding:
Few ways to add shortcut/bookmark of Radio Stream Link into NET Radio Tree
  a) Send to -> NET Radio (option should be enabled only if File Path contain supported protocols defined in 0002424)
  b) D&D to Net Radio Tree

Handling/Playback:
1. Initial Radio Station info should be preserved for bookmarking capabilities
  a)In all cases no matter if direct Net Radio stream is loaded (shoutcast, icecast and MMS:// possibly) first stream info chunk almost always contain Radio Station info following by Currently playing track info chunk

  b) In case URL link is to ASX, M3U, PLS is used to obtain Radio Stream link in 99% of Cases Radio Station info is contained in ASX, M3U, PLS.

    - For ASX it is described in 0002424 regarding information parsed by ASX standard http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/howto/articles/introwmmeta.aspx

    - For Shoutcast PLS is same thing if you download and save instead of open .pls from http://classic.shoutcast.com/ where "Title??=" Have Station Name

    - For Icecast M3U that Are not following Winamps #EXTM3U format information is contained inside icy stream info block from Streaming Server

    - For Icecast XSPF we should firstly add support for XSPF as entered in bug 0005502 and then use information from downloaded XSPF

NOTE: When stream sends Current track info inside stream that info should be showed in player but it should be reverted to Above info when track is shown in playlist or playback is stopped. An UI example could be made to clarify behavior

User in Ticket # 5356 Raised the issue as he is trying To load PLS with list of Radio Station Channels encapsulated in PLS

He expect That MM Load PLS in readable way.

In ~0070992 there is example of common PLS example where Stream links in PLS contain Actual Radio station name and it should be preserved, while showing current track name during playback.
