Ask HN: Is there a music library app that sits on top of streaming services?
I want to be able to let others in my office see the music everyone is listening to, or has listened to, share albums and have a communal library. But I want the library to be distinct from something like Spotify, but would allow someone to browse and play using their own account. This is not a central jukebox, just a central library.
Is there anything out there like that? A sort of shared music library app?

- https://libre.fm/popular-page.php and https://github.com/foocorp/gnu-fm which is shown as archived. Related to that, while digging into libre.fm I found https://github.com/foocorp/hacienda#why-now which claims that last.fm federates, but I wasn't able to find any further references to that

It creates a HTML playlist not from streaming media but from stored media on my home media server. I have expanded it to also support movies and television shows. It also includes an audio/video player to play the media directly in the browser, which bypasses all manners of restrictions imposed by iPhone.
npm run build
node c:\path\mp3-master-list\js\index.js “c:\my-music-path”
Plex might do this as well. It has music libraries and management, and features for having friends, who is watching/listening to what, and sharing libraries. I’d assume you could have one central library that everyone friends and plays from.
