One of my intended uses of the Pirate Audio/PiZero device was as a player for my portable server based on a 'WD Wireless Passport drive' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?105512-Portable-squeezebox-with-a-Western-Digital-quot-Passport-Wireless-quot). I'm unclear how to update the Linaro linux distro on that device, and consequently several issues arise, such as installing Spotty and Material (I think related to missing IO::Socket::SSL - but maybe hardware incompatibility).
So I installed LMS on the Pi Zero, and I'm now using the Remote Library plugin to access the LMS library on the portable server. Seems to work well enough for usability. Material runs nicely with the MAI plugin, the music played scrobbles to Last.FM etc. Spotty is installed but not yet configured.
