Yes and No.  After digging into the code a bit more I'm surprised it
works at all.  I know there's several years of cruft in there, but WOW
is it ugly.  I pretty much gave up on deciphering the tangled web of
global variables and other oddities.

Instead I wrote a separate PERL module for interacting with the Sirius
US and CA sites that does everything except provide the UI bits.  I'm
now trying to shoehorn that back into Greg's plugin since I don't really
want to deal with the UI.  I need to refactor a few things to be
asynchronous and add better error handling before I'd want to turn it
loose on anyone else.  So yes there is news, but I'm a little slower
than I expected because I didn't anticipate just throwing in the towel
and rewriting a large portion of it :)  If I were to continue down the
path of rewriting the whole thing, I'd probably just use OPML like the
"official" plugin and clone its functionality and appearance.    I
wonder if there'd be a negative response from Logitech though for making
something that looks exactly like their plugin, but works for both US/CA
and high/low bitrate streams?  That's probably the easiest option, but
I'll try to work with Greg's plugin because some people like the added
functionality it has.
