-	XSPF is an XML playlist format. It is different from other formats in a few ways. One, the only ~~open/nonproprietary~~ format is SMIL, but SMIL is really not a playlist format, it's an idea for a type of application, and that application is not ~~the same kind of thing~~ as ~~an MP3~~ player. Two, the only other playlist format that the drafters did a really careful job with is SMIL, all the others, like M3U, are so half assed that they have a lot of unfixable bugs.
