My MP3 Streaming Server Scripts

I wrote a little simple script that allows me to serve my MP3 library over the net so I can stream it from whereever I am. I use it to stream my 100 GB music collection to my Treo 700p via EVDO. I essentail can walk around any major metropolitan area in the U.S. and access every song in my collection through my phone including creating dynamic, on-the-go playlists.

I decided to share it with the world since I use it so much. It’s pretty basic but it has some nice features already.

1. No database required
2. Dynamic playlist creation
3. Multiuser support via cookies
4. Supports common mp3 players (iTunes, Winamp, etc..)
5. Flash-based Web player (I didn’t make the swf file)
6. Works with Smartphones such as the Treo 700p over EVDO

Check it out and feedback is welcome as long as they are constructive…
