That looks amazing.. Heart  I'd have a play with that and see how it goes. Didn't check the site in detail as yet, do you know it works with Internet radio?
As a fork of ympd I would expect it would have the same functionality including streams... 
This screenie from the review would indicate it does...."add stream"  :-)

Thumbs Up I'd try and give it a go soon. May need you to be my guinea pig with a test firmware (don't want to release another RC these days).

I'm in ! Smile  Thumbs Up
As far as I can tell, myMPD no longer supports Dirble (Internet radio registry). While this is a bummer, looks like nobody is using this feature anyway.

So yMPD will be replaced by myMPD. The upside of this new web remote is cover art support. Now to actually incorporate myMPD into Snakeoil and make it work....

Dribble has been broken in all the ympd I have tried for the last couple of years (Archphile has info that was supposed to fix it....got a developer key and followed their instructions but still didn't work :-(...  )

I am looking forward to myMPD and am most happy to trade off a non-working Dirble for cover art, searching, and other extra functions... !!

There are plenty of other web-radio listing sites ....

Agreed. Here's myMPD running as the new MPD client, takes a while to get used to, but overall it works pretty well.

Here is myMPD playing one of my reference tracks (Drum Poetry)
