Very cool app. Few thoughts:

- If a track doesn't start buffering quickly enough, maybe automatically skip it?

- Running 'clear' also clears the current track, but it should really be persistent.

- This might go against the popular opinion, but I'd like to see "now playing" pinned at the top, so when the window scrolls, it scrolls under it, instead of effectively hiding it.

- Consider setting a cookie to track preferences.

- If you could link to the source (the current song's soundcloud link) that would be excellent. At the very least, a permalink or something.

Point 2, 3 and 4 are nice, but wouldn't really fit in the command line interface, which is the main feature of the website, I think.

I agree in theory, but I think that breaking the mold slightly will help it grow past a cool tech demo.

I'm mainly comparing this against using SoundCloud directly, or something like turntable.fm. A big feature I like is being able to +favorite a song that I like, or buy the album, so anything that causes me to lose context greatly devalues the app.

And for the cookies, it's really just the background and comment preferences. Maybe the cookie could be named .cmdfmrc or something?

Maybe this was just added, but typing "status" has the effect that you asked for in point 2
