==Features==
* Stream Ripping (0.7). Will save music to SD:\apps\radiow\wr_music_rip.
* ProjectM Visuals (0.7). This is not a full port of ProjectM, textured visuals are not supported and some of the filtering is also incorrect.
* Album Art (0.7). Only works on local files if the file has an APIC or the album art is located in the folder.
* Skins (0.7). Only the new WRBlue skin allows you to select local playback. The older skins will be updated in time but still work well if you just want stream playback.
