| About CafeMP3 |
"I am a music lover and I have
this FreeBSD unix machine that's full of MP3s, maybe about 2000+ MP3
collections of both OPM and foreign songs. Since I own a small computer
rental and I know about web servers setup, I thought of what if I make
those MP3s available in the local network so that others can put on
their headsets and enjoy the MP3s by browsing, searching and clicking
on the songs in a web-based interface. CafeMP3 also allows users to add
to a main MP3 Jukebox that is continuously playing in the computer
shop. Now, CafeMP3 is not only accessible via the LAN but anywhere in
the Internet. I can listen to it when I'm in the office or give the URL
to my friends so they also access the MP3 collections. It's all about
sharing music to everyone. Some sites would take you to sites with full
of pop-ups just to be able to download or get the song you wanted. Some
web-based MP3 jukeboxes are so complex that it's very difficult to
install. Unlike CafeMP3, you just need to create a directory under your
Apache web directory, separate the songs by author, install the CafeMP3
and voila! CafeMP3 is there to show you the indexes of all your MP3s
with search songs feature, create new playlists and add songs to main
jukebox!"
The
CafeMP3 is an easy to install and user-friendly LAN Web-based Jukebox
wherein MP3/Audio files resides in Unix server, users can search a song
from the collections, LAN users listen into one central speaker system,
users can create/edit playlists. Shown below is a snapshot of the easy
to use interface. All songs are sorted by singer. To view the songs of
the singer, click "View Songs of this Artist" and to view all 2000+
collections of MP3, choose "View All MP3 Collections" and click on
"View Songs". The "Add to CafeMP3 Playlist" adds a song to your main
playlist that is being played on a loudspeaker system being heard by
everyone. The "Add to User Playlist" add a song to specific user
playlist. "View Lyrics" allows you to view the lyrics of the song.
