actually i do, unless there are other ways to communicate with 
authentication server and mp3 palyer on the listener side. If we are talking 
about wmplayer or winamp - none of them displays icecast-auth-message if 
icecast-auth-user: 0. In this case sending back an mp3 file contents is the 
only way to respond with some details instead of login-screen prompt.
So, can you please give some more details on file-passing-back mechanism?

and some specification about that "bug" - i mentioned i've tried to send 
back file content's in auth-message, but forgot to mention icecast server 
dropped mp3 content, so currently there is nothing to report on 
bugs.xiph.org.
