=== 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.
 
Version 0.5 has the ability to skin WiiRadio.  There are two skins by default, if you'd like to create one please see the skinning reference.  Also feel free to fill in the blanks on it.
 
=== Languages ===
Version 0.5 now contains the ability to change your language, however the current language packs are incomplete and maybe incorrect.  If you'd like to help out with these please contact me.
