embeddable-mp3-player-shootout    

There's a whole universe of tools out there for helping people make mp3s play in web pages. I conducted a quick survey to collect the following samples. Feel free to add more entries as well as usage tips and warnings for the existing ones. -- Greg

FLAM Player

http://www.flamplayer.com/
"This is an mp3 player built in Flash, and so, it can be embedded in an Html page. It works using PHP and MySQL. The database stores the authors and tracks characteristics, the PHP scripts manage the communication between the Flash player and the MySQL database.

?includes a back-end allowing the fast addition of tracks, the edition of authors or tracks characteristics, the creation of playlists and the simple integration of the player in a page."

JW MP3 Player
http://www.jeroenwijering.com/item=jw_mp3_player
"The JW MP3 Player (built with Adobe's Flash) is the easiest way to add live music or podcasts to your website. It supports playback of a single MP3 file or an RSS, XSPF or ASX playlist, a wide range of flashvars (settings) for tweaking both behavior and appearance and an extensive, documented javascript/actionscript API." - used on hype machine

SoundManager 2?

http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/
"SoundManager 2 is a Javascript Sound API which talks to Flash, effectively mapping most of Flash 8's native sound capabilities to Javascript. It enables web developers and front-end engineers to programmatically control sound in a cross-browser/platform way, using a language they already know.
In short, "It's Javascript Sound for the Web."
