This is probably my fault... I simplified the ASX parser a little  
while back so it just pulls out a list of ref tags in the playlist,  
it doesn't notice the entry or title tags.  Most ASX playlists aren't  
like this one, which actually looks more like it should be served as  
a Podcast instead.

Can you file a bug?
