Yahoo! Music Player Updated
Posted in Blog(s), MP3s, Mixes/Playlists on 02.13.08 15:33

The already wonderful and useful music player used on this site has recently been updated:
Besides some bug fixes the player now has a smaller footprint and steady scrolling (eliminating flicker when scrolling up and down a page).

There is now a play this page feature. Things you can do with this feature:
* A podcaster can use their feed as a playlist for their web page without needing to create an additional playlist.
* A musician’s web site can have a single master page for all of their music and use it as the playlist for any other page in the site.
* A developer could mash up audio sites with other sites. For example, you could put a Wikipedia entry about a composer together with Archive.org recordings related to that composer.
* An XSPF playlist with artist, album, title and other metadata could be imported into HTML, which lacks music metadata fields.
* A playlist creator could make their playlist accessible in third party web pages which ordinarily would be hampered by cross-site scripting restrictions.

See the original post for all the details on the above and other updates

The player also has a new homepage at: http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/
