2 other things:
1. I tend to be listening to music when I am browsing the web, so it was kind of disruptive to have the playlists of others automatically load when I was looking at them. Might be better if they were stopped initially and I could choose ones I might want to hear.
2. Id probably like to do / see a little more before I registered. I don't like to just register for any site I stumble upon. I like to get a sense of what I am getting into first. The more I can do, the more likely I will register.
Hope this helps.

thanks for the feedback! i will add a demo account so people can get a feel for the UI.
hmmm....looks cool.
so will it be possible for me to
stream my itunes music with this tool?
i see your are using rails frontend. what's the fluidplay exe written in?
(btw, i always like to keep text boxes that are underneath each other (username, password, email) -- the same length. it looks better, imho)

you can stream any mp3 with this right now ... there's no support for AAC at the moment by that shouldn't be difficult. hmm i assume you mean FairPlay encoded AAC, i doubt that will be possible since it's proprietary.
it's written in Java, using Icecast as the streaming client/server for now.
about the text boxes... i think I agree with you. i designed it that way to differentiate the credentials with the email, but with three fields, it doesn't really matter. i'll make the change.

i just noticed this -- i'm logged in
and i visit www.fluidplay.com, it doesn't redirect me to /sri, and i end up staring at the create form, and "sri, what it do, baby?" at the top. clicking on the "sri" (which is kinda small), takes me to /sri -- (i would consider the /sri part my dashboard, and should be redirected there if i am signed in, when visiting fluidplay.com....)
i know a lot of people probably don't want to download the client, so you can take a look at the library UI by logging in as schen/1234. thanks!
it just occurred to me that i should probably mention that the client is windows only for now. i have it running on my mac and linux, but haven't released it yet.
Make the font size bigger as well. I think you're trying to minimize the screenspace you take up (?) but I'd rather scroll than squint. Hope this helps.
