okay, I just wanted to state that the reason to use the gconf to store the
url is that I had some complaints that it didn't seem wise to always check
the site for the existence of the file. I didn't know anything about needing
a schema file to put the url value in, so I didn't know why to keep it in
gconf since the page itself is accessed every time the applet loads anyways,
but I put it in so that it could be changed without modding the source code.
I used the meta info for exactly what was described, because in my testing
of the code, I found that even if the file changed, it would load the 404
page still, so I put in the check to make sure it was a flash file and if it
wasn't, then it should go find where it moved to. So in short, it should
work like:

if (gconf key exists && flash file from key exists)
load url
elseif (gconf key exists && flash file not exist)
read main pandora page to find new url
put new url in gconf
load url
elseif (gconf key doesn't exist)
read main pandora page to find new url
put new url in gconf
load url

I think this is what you are trying to figure out and implement. I hope that
makes sense.
