hi Andreas!

have a look into MuSE/libmpeg/httpinput.cc (http://muse.dyne.org)
i hope that code can help you figuring out

i also suggest you to use use libmpeg by Woo-jae Jung as a mp3 decoder library, it's LGPL and for
me worked really fine with few modifications (misses just buffering which would be good to
implement)

btw congratulations for your libbgrab, i enjoy your code :)
cheers
