    • <a href="http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/example3.mp3">Yodel (mp3 link)</a>
    • <a href="http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1810096458/info">Tron (Yahoo! Movie link)</a>
    • <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i56XeM0-b8Y">Zoetrope (YouTube link)</a>
  9. the player will detect these links, render a play button next to the media, and include the media in the playlist
  10. enjoy :-)
