BTW Flashy skins are all well and good, but something that would make
Slimserver more useful would be automatic detection of new music and
additional to the library.

I'm wondering if this is something that has been difficult to implement
due to Slim supporting multiple OS's.
There are Windows API's for "watching" directories for changes. I'm
sure that same also exists for Mac & Linux, but perhaps the
implementation is different enough to make programming this feature 3
distinct jobs.

If Slimserver detected new music, optionally Replaygained it, and added
it to the library automatically it would cut down the  learning curve
for new users considerably.

Slimserver could then install something like CDex for beginners and set
the default rip path to match the users selected music directory.

Then adding to Slimserver becomes a simple job of imserting a Cd, fire
up CdEx and click rip.
