Google Music

After watching the google io keynote two things jumped out at me:
  1. OSHW accessory support!  Arduino!!  I've been thinking about doing some h/w projects that would depend on processing being done one something more then an Arduino.  My phone would be the perfect device.  I have to investigate more but the android accessory support could be a big help.
  2. The google music thing was a bit standard.  They have the cool create a setlist feature.  Time tells if it is worth anything.  But the caching feature is seriously broken if the setlist feature works.  Like, why would I want to cache what I just listened to most of the time.  Maybe LRU a small set of music but use the setlist feature to cache forward.  But then most of these music services are not built for me anyways.  I have 3/4 TB of disk space held down in live music.  A chunk of it came off of archive.  Allow me to put pointers from my shared music database into that to start.
