[Pianod] Remote control, NetIO, station ordering

[Michael R. Hines]

NetIO looks verify promising, but there's just one deal breaker there...
As Parette mentioned, the front-end needs to be self-updating:

- The station list in the App needs to dynamically reflect Pianod's list
- The like/unlike/volume/current playing status also needs to relect
Pianod's status

I actually did read some of the NetIO documentation: It has this feature
called "Response Handilng" which lets you parse the response from the
server and alter the label of the button you're interacting with... But
ultimately, you need to *dynamically* add new buttons or new
pages........

I've been watching this Adobe website for a while, which maybe have a
better cross-platform solution for a frontend:

.... maybe I'll try something this weekend....
