Summary	0002162: Users should be able to add/remove favorite radio stations
Description	Users should be able to maintain a list of favorite radio stations. Favorites would appear in the list of Radio Stations directly below the 'Net Radio' node (or alternatively, in a Favorites node). Users should be able to: . i) Add favorite stations (e.g. click currently playing station and then 'Add to Favorites') . ii) When the user right clicks on the 'Net Radio' node, they would see 'Add currently playing Radio Station to favorites' as a content menu entry. . iii) Remove favorite stations --------- MRU station (simpler alternative implementation): When a user plays a radio station, then the station is automatically added as a subnode to the 'Radio Stations' node. Up to 10 stations display in most-recently used style.

That way, users could just drag stations that they like into the Net Radio node and all their stations would be stored (this already works correctly--i.e. stations can be 'dragged' into a 'Favorite Radio Stations' playlist, so there hopefully isn't really any new functionality to add, just a bit of re-organization. Note: tracklist should have modified headings for this node (e.g. just 'Name' provided by the user and 'Station'). We could even pre-populate the 'Net Radio' node with a few radio stations so that users would understand that it can be used in the manner described.
