BETA1 of 1.5.0 is now available on www.gregbrown.net.  This is a 'beta'
but for those of you on 7.3 it'll work a lot better than 1.0.x.  Please
post any issues you find as there's been a good amount of code change.

7.3.x is REQUIRED.

-Overhauled ProtocolHandler.  Now retrieves the actively playing stream
title info directly from Sirius.
-Supports direct URL play or favorites in the URL format of
siriusradio://# (where # is the channel number).
-Updated channel retrieval and icons for new streams.
-Now displays now playing channel icon.
-Supports AudioScrobbler/LastFM 

People often ask- Why use this plugin when there's an official Sirius
plugin?
There are pros and cons to each... my plugin-

1.) Supports both regular and premium Sirius subscriptions.  The
official plugin only supports premium subscriptions.
2.) Supports both Sirius US and Sirius Canada.  The offical plugin only
supports US.
3.) Displays now playing song title info for most Sirius streams so you
can channel surf without having to start each stream manually.  The
official plugin only displays the currently playing song title info.
4.) Does not watch user activity to timeout/stop playing streams.  The
official plugin watches user activity and will stop playing a stream
after x minutes of inactivity.
5.) Is the original Sirius plugin.  You just can't beat the original!

Please don't forget to support the plugin by clicking through the
Amazon.com links on www.gregbrown.net for all your Amazon shopping
needs. There's also a link for straight forward donations via PayPal as
well :)

Thanks
-Greg
