Updated to prevent developer account from being closed due inactivity
Added threaded song loading options (So not fixing issues on my phone. Works fine on my super-old android 2.3 phone and other newer phones)
Finally made compatible with API 35
Bumped Version
Removed MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. Required for deleting songs, but not permitted by google play store.
Added some additional code for deleting on newer androids. (However Android API itself does not work?).
