	 mt-daapd is a program which acts as an iTunes (DAAP) server for Linux and 
	 other POSIX unixes. It may eventually support Win32 as well.
	 
	 Some random features that it supports:
	 
	   * Supports the Roku SoundBridge (query/browse/index support) 
	   * Supports periodic rescans of the database 
	   * Can advertise shoutcast streams 
	   * Supports password-protected shares 
	   * Is web-configurable and managable 
	   * Support dynamic playlists, like iTunes "Smart playlists" 
	   * Probably other things I've forgotten 
	 
	 All is not perfect, however. Currently, there are several drawbacks to it:
	 
	   * database is indexed by inode, so all music must be on one filesystem 
	   * browse by artist is slow on Roku, times out (with large databases ~10K songs) 
	   * Probably other things I've forgotten
