Comment (by korli):

 This doesn't make much sense to have such an attribute: its meaning would
 have to be per user, which a file system attribute can't provide. Moreover
 what happens if the music played is on a read-only media?
 Usually media players have user "libraries" which also handle statistics
 for each song. That should be also the case for MediaPlayer (probably not
 for streams though).
