Comments on: dev/dream morrigan development week off to a late start http://vaguehope.com/i/54 I will fix the colour theme soon...

Only problem is, I think something in Netbeans screwed up pulling in the libraries properly and a build that worked on my dev machine now doesn't work anywhere. It should hopefully be a reasonable example of how to do native MP3 support in Java. MP3SPI/JLayer definitely seems to be a good option, though it's really picky on badly-encoded files. Tritonus is also used in places, I never really got to the bottom of whether JLayer fully replaces it or not. I moved to JAudioTagger for tag reading/writing as JLayer's functions are slow as all hell when you've got 25,000 to do!
