## Description

Plugin to show top songs – admin can set it to widget area, set its title and number
of songs and some special display options.
 Simple stand-alone widget displaying
daily top songs via ajax script (that is cached for 2 hours after loading data) 
from external source (check external source section). There are some display customization
options like number of displayed songs, song images display and link to songs option(
default: false)

** External source **

External source page External source URL: http://www.mytopnewsongs.com is owned 
by Tomaz Miholic and it’s not in privacy policy conflict with the website privacy.
External source is necessary part of this plugin because the data is coming from
this source.
 Please not that if image display option is enabled that this can have
impact on your wordpress website loading time, because images are loaded from external
source from four different subdomains (External source domain: mytopnewsongs.com,
subdomains: imga,imgb,imgc,imgd).

In next upgrade it’s planned to add the categories (music genres) so user can select
most appropriate genre for his blog/music style.
