I am a bit of a music buff.
My CD collection runs to some 400odd CDs.
As you can imagine, 400 CDs take up some significant amount of space.
I really need to be able to play my CDs from any room in the house.
I’m a coder.
So, combining these, I came up with the idea of using a Rails app to generate an index to my CD collection (ripped into MP3 files) that can be served via shoutcast.
Heres the project page.
