Besides the recording server, I think we really need to consider adding a database for music and TV at the least.
At first, the main thing I would do is have a thread (or seperate process) that addes the entire contents of the Music folders to a database. I don't think we need SQL, though it's an option. We could have the background process also figure out the BPM using this tool: http://bpmdj.sourceforge.net/ By adding to a database, perhaps something with a structure like this: File MD5 Path Filename Artist Album Year Track Play Count Last Play Date Rating BPM We could do very cool things, like have dynamic playlists i.e. Play All songs from the 80s Play All songs I haven't heard in the last 7 days Play My Top 10 Play All songs with BPM > 100 It would be _relatively_ easy to do this, as we already cache information to the audioitem cache, but instead, we'd cache to a database of some kind. I think this could make for a very effective jukebox tool.
