Weblog:   Wireless == great jukebox in the sky?

I have a wifi caravan node setup with 11 random streams available on ports 8000 through 8010 which are playing random tracks from a playlist that is everything uploaded to this shared caravan storage partition (right now about 7276 songs).


Hopefully we will have people driving along down to san francisco listening to tunes via the "great wifi jukebox in the sky" (that happens to be traveling down I-5 in a vehicle :-)


Anyone who likes the music can then copy what they like via http, smb, nfs, ftp, rsync, or even tftp (among others). People can upload what they will and this will be added to the random playlists.


I'd like to be able to customize this in a number of different ways (i.e. give the user a web interface and let them kick off a stream that matches) but haven't gotten that far yet.
