How to stream audio when using Windows "N" edition?

European users can buy a special version of Windows called the "N" and "KN" edition (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/n-editions).
This version come with no support for media-related technology. If you try to use Clouder! with that version of Windows, the media player won't show up.

To fix that, you will need to install the Media Feature Pack from Microsoft.
