conTEXT

This script looks for text or html files in the playing directory and (optionally) web reviews for the currently playing album. On success it inserts them in a new manageable box into the context browser.

To access the review search menu, move your mouse over the conTEXT icon in the lower right corner of the context browser. Here you can click a site name to start a single search, or select sites for auto-search (which will be triggered when the album changes or the script is restarted). Found reviews are stored in the file's directory by default.

... wrap at context browser width

b: set a timeout of 10 seconds for search requests
b: avoid temp files to be written to home directory when KDE session is quit with Amarok still running
a: quick fix to make it work (at least not exit) with last.fm streams (you can't have more than one review at a time yet)
