Notes

• tracks and images are not included in the download package.
• youtube will not work as audio on iDevices but as a video due to the platform limitations
• there is a included flash tool to compose a image of the wave form. Note that because mp3 decoding is expensive, there is a physical limitation of about 20 minutes tracks ( meaning that with tracks over 20 minutes it might crash on memory exhaustion , but it depends on the computer where the decoding is done )
