Normally, you don't have to - you would just call e.g. 
BMediaRoster::GetParameterWebFor(), and don't bother with the direct 
implementation.
At least that's how I understand it - as an application you don't talk 
to the BMediaNodes directly, ever - you are just using the methods 
provided by the roster.

Adios...
