I ran across this thread in the Yahoogroups archives. I've done a lot of work with playlists in the past year and wanted to add things I've learned since...
Glad to hear you're building in MAGNET support! I don't quite understand your concern. I think the best way to achieve your goal of providing multiple hash...

Don't do away with the xt1, xt2, xt3 syntax. We don't use it but I kinda like it - and LimeWire supports it. Kazaa is going to use xt=urn:kzhash:<kzhash>...
Neither. Both. What do you think is needed? I'd like a format that's easy to create (by hand or code), easy to read (by eye or code), and that is equally...
