音乐文件列表也是个不容忽视的问题，自己定个格式当然可以，但好在大家熟悉的M3U格式并不复杂，MediaPlayer或WinAmp都支持它，通用性也好，比起wpl要简易得多，所以我就来介绍一下M3U格式文件的制作与读写
M3U是文本文件，以#EXTM3U开头，每个音乐条目占1-2行，当存在扩展信息时，首行采用#EXTINF:开头，第二行才是文件名；当没有扩展信息时，只是简单的一行，就是文件名；文件名可包含路径，也可不包含，不包含时音乐文件应该是与M3U文件在同一目录下。
整个格式就这么简单，下面是读取函数，与保存函数，读取时返回的是一个M3U集合，每个集合项目为一首音乐信息的字符串，想获取这个串的具体内容， 可用GetM3UInfo函数返回MusicInfo结构。
保存函数不太完善，需传入一个M3U集合，因使用集合传递M3U字串信息，每个条目只能添加删除，不能直接修改。若有兴趣，可采取类封装MusicInfo结构，并提供修改功能。
