Probably yes now that I have changed the main player. Oggs wouldn't have worked previously. If I add Oggs then games that don't use the new Webkit browser still won't reliably work with Oggs - users would be required to have an ActiveX-enabled Ogg media player installed, and most don't.

Feature request:
A way to play specific songs via console.
This would allow for player/admin song-specific keybindings as well as the ability for server admins to broadcast songs remotely via the server console.
The best usage solution I see would be an alternate search command or tacking on a second option to a search: sm_jb -psearch horses or sm_jb -play -search horses would play the first result for a search for "horses".
Having the separate launch option would also allow for sm_jb -play 1234, which would play the track with the database ID 1234. But that would require listing out ID numbers either on the website half of the mod, or in the in-game GUI. Honestly, just combining this feature with search should be enough and is very dynamic.

I agree, that's a good idea for a feature. I'll look into implementing something that works off of the search like you suggest, except I will make it play everything in the result in sequence and not just the first track. The commands should be as specific as possible (ie. /jb -album white album -title helter skelter -play") in order to avoid possible future conflicts with new media.
