Bug Description

Release: Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10, Exaile 0.2.12b

The Shoutcast directory page appears to have stopped using tabs to indent the <OPTION> tags that contain the genre/subgenre names. The pattern used to parse the list was thus failing, resulting in no Shoutcast categories being listed. This could just be a temporary problem with Shoutcast, but attached is a suggested patch for the problem which should work even if Shoutcast switches back to tabs for indentation.

Also affects streamtuner:

shoutcast plugin for 0.2.14 now includes a fix for this. trunk is now using shoutcast's API instead so should be impervious to future changes.
