Music browsing with Opera

We all know that Opera is a kind of music. But music might not be the thing you think about when you use the Opera browser.
I'm going to change that. Opera is perfect together with your media player of choice and My Opera. Have a look at this screen recording:
This was all done without any extensions to Opera. All you need to do is to enable your links panel (Ctrl + Shift + 9) and set the URL of MP3 files to be sent automatically to your media player of choice with the download preferences. I know it works well with Winamp.
To find MP3 files easily in a page, type 'mp3' in the quick find field in the links panel. To select several files, click the first MP3 in the list, hold down shift, and click the last MP3. Press return to send their addresses to Winamp. A new playlist is automatically generated from the URLs sent to Winamp.
You can switch tracks in Winamp faster by setting some global hotkeys for it in the Winamp preferences.
The video shows me browsing Zenya's blog.
