Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36908
Affects: amarok (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
Within amaroK's "playlists" tab, there is a section there labelled
"Cool-Streams" (within "Radio Streams"). Within that, there are many
Internet radio stations.
The issue is that the majority (if not all) of these streams rely on mp3
support from Dapper. Being as Dapper will not ship with mp3 support out
of the box, maybe these streams should be removed so that the user will
not assume the application is broken when exploring these streams.
Some streams may be replaceable with more open formats. I know that the
Frequence3 station also has ogg streams running which Ubuntu could use.
If any more feedback/information is needed, feel free to ask.
