What Do I Want To Listen To

A simple, tag-based music library manager.

This project is born out of a frustration I had managing my music library. I have found playlists, genres, and other ways of organizing my music too restrictive and cumbersome to keep up with. Here are the main features I want out of music player, in order of priority:

Implemented

Song tagging.
Playlists.
Bookmarks (temporary song tag marking location in a playlist/album)
Read meta-data from ID3.

TODO

Web-based interface.
Mobile interface (could implement the Subsonic API on the back-end to be able to use pre-made mobile apps)
Transcoding on the fly.
Read songs from Amazon S3.
Stream from Amazon Cloudfront.

I have not found a music manager that gives me all of the above, so I'm writing my own.

Overview

WDIWTLT is currently made up of two subprojects:

core
cli

`core`

core contains the data layer implementation, built with a lightweight ORM layer over JDBC, and common functionality for managing a media library.

`cli`

cli is a command-line interface built using the WDIWTLT core and VLC for media playback.

Install

The current version, 0.1.0, is an alpha version.
