Display YEAR metadata in the players
Broadcasters want to share the year that a track was released with their listeners. Since we have the Year ID3 metadata tag available for each uploaded track, we could expose this field in the player when a track has data for it.
The alternative is that broadcasters are putting a year in the title field, which brings them out of compliance with providing accurate metadata for each song that they play. In order to avoid this, and to help ensure compliance, we can stick to the ID3 standards of using the Year field for the year, and display it to the listeners. This would alleviate station owners from editing each of their track titles to show the year.

I load the ALBUM NAME and YEAR by default but they DO NOT APPEAR in the PLAYER window. Surely this would be easy to do and if the station owner didn't add the data, it

Maggie G / UV - Ultimate Variety RadioSpeaking of DMCA compliance, I just reread the list of things we're supposed to adhere to. The player window is supposed to display the album title, as well as the song title and artist. So, we're already out of compliance because of that, too.

Frank Russell MergedThis would come in handy when preparing a playlist and be able to play the latest music by each artist.
