How to share your music collection with your Mac using buddies

Filed in archive Multimedia on January 1, 2008

Not too long ago, I featured Elisa, the open source media center that connects to iTunes shared libraries. This time, we feature Firefly, previously known as mt-daapd, the media server that allows you to share your library with iTunes users. Yes, you heard that right, iTunes users can now connect to your Firefly media server.



Installing it is not difficult and UbuntuGeek provides a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

So what are you waiting for? Start sharing your music legally by streaming it across the network rather than distributing multiple copies. :)
