Great one!

"I don't like sports. Nobody does."

Ummm, I think this was a satirical statement...

My Audio opened in another card and I was able to switch back and view the game. My video clips, on the other hand, opened in the same card.

Just checked the current games and wasn't able to do what you said. Audio pulls up its own card but once you go to card view or switch apps audio turns off until you make it the active card again and then press play.

Uh oh....you are right on this one. While what I noted IS correct (that it opens in another card), I hadn't flipped back, and you're right, it does stop playing. It seems what's really needed here is for the music player to be updated to handle web audio streams. Since the video player treats this as...well, as a video, that's why it pauses it. I assume this makes sense in a video purpose, but not for audio.

Interestingly, for the video clips, it opens them in the SAME card as the browser yet they, too, don't play when minimized. Huh.

mlb.com is getting better and better to view on the pre.

in the beginning, the wap site would need to be unpinched to view it.

also, the few videos they link to, work on the pre.
