MP3 Jukeboxes with a Web Frontend?

johnmearns asks: "With hard drive prices so low I couldn't help but pick up a large drive and finally get around to setting up a file server in my house. I normally do all my home computing from my laptop and would like to play mp3s stored on the fileserver back through my stereo. I've found lots of nice streaming mp3 server packages like NetJuke, but I don't want to stream. I would like a player that offers controls that I could access via a web interface from any machine on the LAN. Many of the alternatives I've found seem to have a nasty interface and have been abandoned for years. I thought I'd check and see if other Slashdot readers were using for this. Preferably it would work easily with FreeBSD, but I'm not picky at this point!"

    Pricy but WAY worth it.

    The web interface rocks, it has an intelligent remote control interface, and my wife hasn't busted it in frustration yet.
