Yardbirds Player plays internet radio streams (*1) and also streams music files (*2) including hi-res (*3) in the cloud(WebDAV/Box(*4)).
You can utilize multiple accounts of Box and so on!
It provides a universal Playlist feature (Shortcut-List) (*5). Each Shortcut-List handles music files that span multiple WebDAV servers.
Theres almost no limits with its number of servers, whole capacity of storage, and the number of tracks. It differs from major music streaming services. You can obtain much better cloud music streaming environment by using of home-server or NAS (*6).
It provides a better look-and-feel, mimicking audio devices. It has 100 radio stations preset as samples. It supports various playlist formats. You can easily add more preset radio stations with built-in tuner/iTunes file sharing/Open In.... Basically, it preserves preemptive playback mode if the radio-station/track list is displayed. The view will not be changed arbitrarily during playback sequence.
