See #7 which covers the "list" part of this wishlist. Also provide the ability to merge (i.e. choose between track metadata in the stream and metadata already on the files themselves) and edit by hand all metadata before proceeding with download, transcode, tag and rename steps.

The "merge" part is a bit tricky. This assumes we can pre-download only the parts of the files containing the metadata and then examine them, i.e. tell mplayer what offset & length to download (hopefully quite short), extract it and present to the user in some editable form (compare with how the 'abcde' http://lly.org/~rcw/abcde/page/ handles this).
