Radio block. Listen to internet radio stations or youtube playlists, GTA-style!

I suggest adding a simple block that plays internet radio or youtube playlists at a certain radius (I suggest like 25 blocks). You can also add extra speakers that, when connected to the main radio block, plays with it at the same radius. Simple as that.

While I think I would be really awesome to wire my Space Mall Station with muzak, I don't think this one will really happen.
But we can try!
Pleaze?!?

How does the block get a hold of the playable media?

Youtube playlists shouldn't be very difficult, though Internet radio would likely need to be restricted to a certain site.

This would be a cheap, easy way to implement a soundtrack for the game, different from other games, by having the blocks link to a default StarMade-related playlist link by default (Server configurable). If you could have logic drive which playlist is being accessed (maybe by linking display blocks, which would hold the playlist link?), you could have player-action-driven soundtracks. (Think: Switching from a light cruising soundtrack to a more exciting combat soundtrack, simply by switching to Red Alert or popping out hidden turrets.)
