A friend is finally getting his music online and is looking at LMS
alternatives due to the fact that, as far as either of us can tell, all
communication via the web interface, smartphone/tablet clients, etc. is
vanilla http and not https.

I don't recall ever reading complaints about this here before and am
wondering if anyone else views this as a real problem. His concern is
that somehow malware will ride in somehow and...I'm not entirely sure.

One specific complaint he has is plain text login to the server, which
makes me wonder if there's any reason to have a password in the first
place if you aren't opening ports (bad idea!) and aren't trying to keep
kids out.

Is he overreacting or are we fans just accepting the risk because
everything else about LMS works so well?

He's talking about going to dark side and getting $ono$ on the
assumption that it's more secure.

Any and all advice is welcome.
