I\u2019d think anything (<code>h-entry</code>/<code>h-item</code>) that has <code>u-audio</code> would be either a track (if it\u2019s attached to an album) or a release (if it\u2019s attached to an artist/feed), and any missing properties would inherit from the parent container.</p><h3><a href=\"http://beesbuzz.biz/blog/4607-More-rambling-about-this-streaming-radio-thing#4607_h3_3_The-radio-implementation\"></a>The radio implementation</h3><p>I\u2019d expect that the radio implementation itself doesn\u2019t actually care about the formatting of the individual feeds/items/etc., but that it would just recursively descend whatever the feed is and create artists/albums/tracks as appropriate, using metadata and canonical item URLs to try to coalesce them into single ground-truth things, and then would provide a nice browse experience that lets people add things to playlists, visit the original federated items, etc.</p><p>If someone adds a link to their personal streaming implementation, it would ingest whatever data is on the page as well as possibly discovering feeds from <code>&lt;link&gt;</code> tags, and the thing that\u2019s added could also be marked as a private collection so that it isn\u2019t made available to others on the platform (i.e. it\u2019s someone\u2019s collection of purchased music formatted as an ingestion feed). There\u2019s no need for a private collection to have a different feed format than a public feed, <em>but</em> it\u2019s super important to not make private collections' items available to other users of the platform, aside from basic metadata scrobbling.</p><h3><a href=\"http://beesbuzz.biz/blog/4607-More-rambling-about-this-streaming-radio-thing#4607_h3_4_On-other-projects-people-keep-me\"></a>On other projects people keep mentioning to me</h3><p>I am aware of libre.fm, listenbrainz, and <a href=\"https://theindiebeat.fm/\">The Indie Beat</a>.
