So just a general question here...who is using Linux as a "media center" of
sorts?  For...well, years now...I have been using Logitech Squeezebox devices
as my main media boxes.  The problem with this is the damnable "Logitech Media
Center"...formerly squeezecenter.  Logitech no longer supports any of it and I
think maybe only one person in the world is currently maintaining the thing. 
It was written in Perl and every time the OS updates perl...it breaks (don't
ask me my opinions on perl).

So I have had enough...my Squeeze Boom boxes' displays have all failed due to
the sub-standard components they used.  And now I can't even get the LMS to
work anymore.   I'm done...and I'm moving to MPD.

I've been playing around with Rune Audio, and Arch Linux based MPD distro that
runs on RPi devices...I like it.  But it's missing things like an alarm clock
(I've had my Squeeze Boom on my bedside table for over a decade now).

Does anyone have any other suggestions?  MPD seems like the way to go.  Kodi
doesn't quite cut the mustard as an audio player...Rune Audio/MPD is designed
to be headless.
