Yeah, and I know how big an "if" that is!

I had Jinzora in the back of my mind too when I wrote down my rant! I 
kinda envisaged a php-metalibrarian extension etc. too as I do a fair 
bit of PHP coding in my working role.

I heard that their metadata code is quite abstracted so hopefully that 
would mean this kind of integration wont be the hardest thing in the 
world. But I guess that remains to be seen!

I guess if this whole system worked, it wouldn't actually be part of 
MythWeb per se, it would be a completely separate utility but would just 
work with exactly the same backend data as MythMusic. But I think I'm 
just getting into semantics there! :)
