To-do

• Set SoundByte as the default music player in Windows 10.
• Custom icon for music in file explorer (not just the SoundByte logo, follow other app guidelines).
• Ability to open common music files in SoundByte via file explorer.
• Ability to also open video files (such as .mp4) which are also commonly used for audio.
• Ability to open up multiple files and play them in a playlist.
• Video formats (like .mp4) should also play the video in the now playing view (like YouTube videos).
• If only one track is opened, Soundbyte should check the folder for other music as well.
• Extract the track thumbnail.
• Liking local music will add the music to an internal likes database.
• Create local playlists that will be saved to an internal playlist database.
