A handy way to get around DI.fm's new restriction on third-party media players.

You can find a list of all the channels here. Change the CHANNEL variable to adjust the channel to listen to.

This originally comes from http://hackedtogether.blogspot.nl/2016/03/listen-to-difm-streams-with-vlc-as-free.html, but I've modified it a bit to no longer hardcode a path to VLC.

So you're curious in learning this new thing called (Functional) Reactive Programming (FRP).

Learning it is hard, even harder by the lack of good material. When I started, I tried looking for tutorials. I found only a handful of practical guides, but they just scratched the surface and never tackled the challenge of building the whole architecture around it. Library documentations often don't help when you're trying to understand some function. I mean, honestly, look at this:

Rx.Observable.prototype.flatMapLatest(selector, [thisArg])

Projects each element of an observable sequence into a new sequence of observable sequences by incorporating the element's index and then transforms an observable sequence of observable sequences into an observable sequence producing values only from the most recent observable sequence.
