Public bug reported: What I did:
Double-click on a PLS file from http://evolectronica.com/ with the following contents: [playlist] NumberOfEntries=1 File1=http://ec2-54-247-3-167.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:8000/channel2 Title1=Evolectronica - evolving electronic music Length1=-1 Version=2 What I expected to happen: An appropriate program (I don't care what) opens and starts playing an internet radio stream. What actually happened: Rhythmbox opened, displayed the text "Not Playing", turned gray, and for about 5 minutes used 100% CPU and caused extreme disk IO usage. For a brief moment, Rhythmbox regained its color and I caught a glimpse of what appeared to be a list of data import failures. For reasons that escape me, the list cited many files from my home folder which have nothing to do with audio—things like operating system disk images, firmware binary dumps, source tarballs, etc.—and which I was not using at the time. I didn't get a good look at that screen because moments later Rhythmbox disappeared entirely, only to be replaced with the message "Sorry, the program 'rhythmbox' closed unexpectedly. Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers."
