Use a OSX box as an iTunes music server
The previous respondent does not seem to have answered the question(s) which you have posed. So can you do this running OSX 2 or 3? Yes; the software compiles without issue under both of the mentioned releases of OS X. Provided you have installed the three required dependencies beforehand, everything will work quite well. ... how would new music be added to the lists? The method I use is as follows: ... would it have to be added to the broadcasted playlists manually through SSH? Well, the current release of the daapd daemon does not support playlists — only the master "Library" is published. Thus you would still be required to make use of the GUI and iTunes if you wanted to create and publish specialized playlists. The alternate mt-daapd project, mentioned in another thread, does support the creation and publication of playlists. However, I have not used this and cannot comment on the procedure. I just don't want to run VNC or Timbuktu. As I mentioned above, if you can live without playlists (or are willing to compile and install mt-daapd), then it is possible to maintain (add, subtract, etc.) tracks and albums within your music database remotely and entirely from the command line.

I second that vote for mt-daapd. Couple of pluses over daapd: |
