For the communal music player, means of access is also something to consider.
I'm personally quite comfortable with the minimal MPD client, [ncmpcpp](https://github.com/ncmpcpp/ncmpcpp), but the aim of a _communal_ music system is to entice others, potentially houseguests to use it too.
To ask them to use a TUI system whose name doesn't even contain vowels would be an exercise in the obtuse.
Therefore, I also want a means to interact with this music player which is ideally as straightforward as Spotify.
