New Site Music Player

The New Site Music Player is now live on ArtistServer
This is an mp3 player that loads at the bottom of the screen so there is no need for an external mp3 player when streaming single songs.
What is nice about this player, is that music loads faster, and starts playing sooner than when you use an mp3 player on your computer. The only drawback, is that the player is not 'persistent' - it loads with each page view. Your mp3 player on your computer doesn't have this drawback.
There's a settings icon located on the player where you can can turn it off, and the site will return to the traditional setup, where all play links will target your mp3 player on your computer. If you ever want to turn it back on, there is a link in the footer of the site (main site, not here on the forums).
If the site music player is 'on' the embedded Flash music players on artist pages are not displayed.
There are a few places on the site that still need updating, which do not use the new site music player:
* /dashboard.cfm
* integration into featured artists bar - playlist support
* /reviews/index.cfm
* /projects/index.cfm
* /store/index.cfm
* /stations/index.cfm - playlist support
ADDITIONAL UPDATES:
* Site homepage - this has been cleaned up, and no longer uses the flash music player since we now have the new site music player
* Music License - now when you click on a music license, you get a more condensed view of the license in an overlay, which also loads faster than a pop-up window
If you notice anything wrong with any of these updates, please notify me, and let me know if you are on PC or Mac, and what browser and version you are using.
