How to embed an audio mp3 player on your blog or a web page

For this post on Microsoft's hypocritical tax dodging, I used the Yahoo! Media Player which does a nice job of providing play icons for all your mp3 links.

 

Basically, you just add html like <script type="text/javascript" src="http://webplayer.yahooapis.com/player.js"></script> to your page, then any links to mp3 files that you include are automatically given play icons so that they play in place.
