The underlying nodejs http client engine in MediaServer has been
migrated to the *Axios* NPM library (the old 'request' library has been
fully deprecated). Axios has much better error handling and assembles
chunked responses itself, plus it handles JSON natively. Because the
Axios engine uses the string 'axios' as its user-agent, Stream commands
will now result in a player called 'axios from Alexa' in your LMS GUI
instead of 'AlexaMediaPlayer from Alexa'. Other than that, you should
not notice any changes other than slightly reduced latency on all
commands.

I'll watch the logs closely the coming days to see if any bugs surface
but in beta testing it was all rock solid.
