GMusic Desktop Player
GMusic — Unofficial Play Music Desktop Player for Windows v.1.9.15 beta
NEW UPDATE: November 3rd 2015
— Updated to newer Webkit engine
— Removed FreeRAM option, since it is not needed anymore
— Now it uses PPAPI Flash instead of the NPAPI, i.e. Now you should install Opera/Chromium Flash instead of Firefox’s Flash Plugin.
— Added full webkit/blink engine files, bigger download size but it is recommended.
NEW UPDATE: October 31th 2015 Halloween Edition
— Fixed memory leak caused by a known bug in CEF webkit
— Partially updated the userstyles for the new Google Music theme
— Updated to a newer Webkit engine
NEW UPDATE: February 13th 2015 Friday 13th edition
— Added back old options: popup notification on new song, freeram on new song start
— Disabled selection of HTML elements, except inputs
— Update userstyles using @media to give it a responsive layout theme
Known bugs: sometimes the application couldn’t be launch (or crashes on launch), it seems that using another executable as subprocess has to do with it, but just close the application and try again.
UPDATED: February 12th 2015
Beta: This is an update which works on a newer WebKit engine. It might contain errors.
— New: It allows to customize the application’s colors, just edit it in the userstyle, now your userstyle (css) will match your design.
— It still uses Flash due to licensing.
— It remains portable: you can clear the cache folder anytime you want to free disk space
— It requires subprocess.exe to run the webkit process, don’t remove/move it.

Also, there's a bug with pausing/playing from the Win7 taskbar controls. If I choose pause and then try to play again, it changes the bar coloring from yellow/paused to green/playing, but doesn't start playing. Clicking the play button again will get it to start. Also, if I pause from the taskbar but play from inside the app, the taskbar still shows as paused/yellow.
Thanks again!
Implement the Love button for Last.fm in the mini-player.
In other hand, which language did you use? Would you like placing the source code in GitHub? I will be very happy to make some improvements in your code!
