So I'll keep it on the backburner - I play Calm every so often so it is
a bti of interest.  There are some interesting LMS programming
challenges in handling the channel list.

Yes - artwork is not part of the stream (e.g. Radio paradise does this)
- artwork is kept separate - this enables the streams to be handled by
lots of plain internet radio.

If I get the free station working with art - then adding on the paid
channel may be too hard (AFAICT the sequence is send message to Calm with
user id and password - Calm replies with token and token is then used with
URL of a paid stream. Tokens are time limited so I'm not sure what happens
when time runs out).
