Hi spo, nice looking app.

Just a question, what do you mean by "play them over the web"? Do you mean you can make MP play them on the MP computer (that is, control MP using the web interface)? Or do you mean you can stream them over the network to the computer you are browsing on and play them there?

The reason I'm asking this is that there seems to be some requests for a web service to control MP (e.g. tell it to re-read the recording database, play a specific song, change settings, etc). I'm thinking of using .NET remoting or MSMQ to accomplish this, but I don't have much time so I don't think I will start this. Any one else wanna have a crack? .net remoting or MSMQ should do the trick. I'm thinking of having a non-GUI plugin in MP that the web service can communicate with.

This web service will make your web interface work properly and have more features, plus it may open doors for a pocket pc controlling app.

my 2 cents
