While we wait for remote control in MythMusic, can anyone recommend a 
Linux web app for playing music locally?  I have searched all over, but 
all the web apps that I have seen that have a decent interface (f.ex. 
Andromeda) seem to be designed to stream audio to the web client 
instead of playing it on the server.  It seems a bit of a waste to 
stream music to my laptop when the machine they are hosted on is 
already connected to the home theatre amp :-)
