These are the main features of Yahoo Media Player:

• Adds audio to your site with one line of HTML
• Uses simple, easy-to-hack HTML instead of complicated proprietary markup, ushering in the REAL Media Web
• Magical floating design never gets lost, is available when you need it, gets out of your way when you don't need it
• Automatically finds all audio links on your page, turning your page into a playlist
• Plays all your blog entries with a single button click
• Allows you to put the play buttons where they belong: IN CONTEXT
• Keeps the user in the page rather than sending them away to a media player
• Picks up your images and adds them as cover art
• Requires no download, install or maintenance
