What is it?

Music Player Daemon (MPD) is a flexible, solid server-side application for playing music. It is controlled by one or more external applications named clients. Interesting features:

• SRC with secret rabbit code
• Support for 24bit and 32bit output
• Reliable and steady: even with relatively high cpu usage doesn't suffer buffer underruns
• Gapless playback
• Cuesheet support (since version 0.15)
• Most important: It can be used to output music directly to brutefir piping directly to its stdin.

Where can I get it?
