It would be enough (for me) to have an URL in the collection database. The remaining data (ID3tag etc.) can be pulled in on the first playback or similar. I am not actually sure what kind of indexing is being performed at all (with local files). Isn't the "collection" just a list of all music files with their paths (and tags and stuff), written in some database? In this respect, I still don't see how a file obtained from http is any different from a file obtained from a local hard disk. Note, though, that I have remained fairly ignorant about this whole media player technology since the time of WinAMP and XMMS (cca 1995), so I am not exactly well informed about how and why the design of Amarok is the way it is.
