Media remote controls in-game custom music (Xbox 360 delight #011)

We'd overlooked this handy little maneuver until just last night. For those of you that like to stream custom music into your games, you can use the media remote to pause, stop, or cycle through the playlist, avoiding the Xbox 360 guide altogether. It's a handy trick if you want to quickly pause the music to catch some important dialogue or switch to a different audio track on the fly. The Xbox 360 guide pop-out menu is certainly no hassle (and calling it up usually pauses the game), but having the media remote by your side makes controlling your custom music even easier.
