Petition To Get A Media Player In the Overlay!
Why?
Some of people are probably thinking what's the point in all this?
Well, *most* of the available media players going take up an annoying amount of memory. It doesn't render games unplayable by any means, but when the song changes or something like that, you get a little lag spike, usually when you're trying to backstab someone.
Apart from that, it's not very convenient when a song you don't feel like listening to comes on and you have to alt-tab your way out which wastes time and prompts some arsehole to yell "OMGZ THARS AN AFKER". You've also got certain games where alt-tabbing freezes the game and makes you need to end the Steam processes and restart or wait for it to stop being silly.
Basically, it's not a necessity, not my any means, but it would certainly be a nice addition to the Steam interface along with the web browser. Nothing big, just a bare-bones audio player.
