		Uses:
			Kuler by Adobe
			Fmod by Firelight Technologies
			Microsoft SAPI for speech
			LibCurl
			DirectX ofcourse
	
		Notes:
			Might need latest DirectX. (August 2009 release maybe?)
			Should work on XP and Vista.
			Some decent graphics card and cpu highly recommended.
			
			Atleast during development, some stability problems existed.
			Rerunning demo usually does the trick if something happens.
			
			Especially Kuler RSS seems to be sloooow, so don't panic
			if "LOADING" screen takes long.
			
		Running:
			By default demo autodetects highest resolution available and uses that.
			If that is big no no, modify "res1024x768.xml" accordingly
			and run demo with xml as argument. Like this:
			
			badnews.exe res1024x768.xml
			
		
		Feeds:
			You can change the feeds from feeds.xml.
			Demo should be able to read any rss 2.0 stream. (Big should.)	
			Timeouts are long for a reason.
