- Creates a XML file with information on that song.
- The plugin also offers you the ability to FTP that file to a server of your choosing after it is updated.

- URL of the album image cover art from Amazon.com (if found).
- Link to the Amazon.com product page for the CD (if found).
- Link to the Apple iTunes Music Store product page with the song highlighted within iTunes (if found).
