I was excited to discover that SqueezeCenter now supports seeking in WMA
streams.

Can we improve the ASX file support, too? Recent versions of ASX have a
"starttime" tag. For example, the following blob in an ASX file says to
start three hours into a stream:

        <entry ClientSkip="no">
                <starttime value="3:0:0.0"/>
                <ref href="mms://some.place.com/some-file.asf" />
        </entry>

A number of radio stations -- including KEXP, a favorite -- use this
technique to help users pinpoint songs and shows in their streaming
archives.

I've written an OPML wrapper around KEXP's streaming archive. Support
for "starttime" is the only thing standing in the way of making it
awesome:
