slash Library Server... why have this?
« on: January 07, 2012, 11:54:58 am »

Curious... why would one want/need to open a browser and use a hyperlink (Library Server) to launch a local install of of MC, surely they would just launch the application directly?

I use Library Server so that only one PC (the server) tries to maintain the library and playlists while the other 5 PCs can use it to play music elsewhere in my house. I used to have each PC point the library to the same network folder but then each MC install would try to maintain the files which was problematic.

I'm sure that other more sophisticated users have more reasons to use it but these are mine. I would be very unhappy if Library Server disappeared.
