Looks like MPD 0.24.3 has been released!

Nice. I'll build a package today.

Tim, could you please upgrade the url of "radio France la jazz" to the more audiophile 192kbs aac stream instead of the 128kbs mp3?

Great! I'm very excited about the addition of AirPlay metadata and cover art!

I also have a radio request.
The standard NTS radio channels are wrongly named:
- "NTS Live London - Don't Assume" should be "NTS Live 1" ("Don't Assume" is a program that occasionally airs on channel 1)
- "NTS Live International" should be "NTS Live 2". The metadata also sets the location for this one in the US. I know they have a studio in LA and often air from there but they still mostly air from the UK on both channels so I'd suggest changing that as well.

I can create a simple pull request changing this in the sqlite3 database if that is preferred!

No prob, I can make the change.

Hi Tim!
I saw the 9.3.1 release available for download from github. When will the in-place update be available?
Thank you!
