mime.types
The media players do not care about the mime content types sent in the HTTP header, but in some situations it may be useful to be able to specify it. Perhaps if you want to use llink with a browser.

# MIME type Extensions application/octet-stream bin dms lha lzh exe class so dll application/ogg ogg
