I agree with Charles about the Perl stuff. Most of the jukebox software is
based on Perl and MySQL and requires the installation of quite a few modules
for database interface, IDs tags and so on ...
Does IRPD archive the MP3 files - it doesn't seem to. That capability is
offered by the more complex programs out there.
