Thinking about what a good mixtape format would be today, assuming people mostly don't have actual tape decks.

One continuous audio file with all songs joined together?

Offline html page with an embedded audio player?

Other ideas? Should be independent of streaming services.

@aesthr One continuous audio file with chapter marks, like Matroska audio supports (mka)

@dascandy I don't think most people's playback software (probably just the default media player on their phones) will support those chapter marks so that might be a wasted effort

@aesthr Not many people's playback software will start supporting it if nobody uses it. Given how Youtube marks its chapters, there's a definite use and demand for it.
