*** AmiModRadio

Did you know that, as of 2015/06/02, there are more than 20,000 packages in the
mods directory on Aminet? (http://aminet.net/tree?path=mods) Yes! That's more
than 20,000 modules to play and enjoy! There are also thousands of modules on
Haxor.fi, Modland, Modules.pl. So, why not have a program that could
automatically download one module at-a-time, extract it, and play it using your
favorite player? This is the purpose of AmiModRadio! It can download, unarchive,
and send modules to your favorite players: AmigaAMP, DeliTracker, EaglePlayer,
HippoPlayer, MultiPlayer, or TuneNet.

*** Essentials

AmiModRadio is composed essentially of seven components:

- A small FTP client (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol) to
  access and download archives/modules from:
	- Aminet (http://aminet.net/tree?path=mods);
	- Modland (http://www.exotica.org.uk/wiki/Special:Modland);
- A HTTP client (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol)
  to access and download archives/modules from:
	- Haxor.fi (https://mod.haxor.fi/);
	- Modules.pl (http://www.modules.pl/?id=modules);
- A XAD client (http://aminet.net/package/util/arc/xadmaster020) to unarchive
  downloaded archives;
- A ARexx command-and-control system (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARexx) to
  gently ask a player to play the modules;
- A CLI-based interface to control the basic parts of AmiModRadio;
- A MUI interface (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_User_Interface) to control
  the various parts of AmiModRadio, in particular:
	- To save modules;
	- To browse modules lists;
	- To rate modules quality;
- A companion Web server (http://www.chingu.asia/amimodradio/) to store users'
  ratings of the modules.
