I have a project I want to work on in mono. Essentially I want to create a music server on my ubuntu linux installation?

I understand I need the following:

Webapp
Music folders
A server
A way of streaming the data from the server to the webapp

Im pretty much looking for implementation ideas on a high level?

A friend of mine at work has setup his own streaming music server using Subsonic. I was trying to google for it and found this. (http://lifehacker.com/5198016/roll-your-own-streaming-media-server-with-subsonic)

This lets me login to this server and stream music to my android phone using the subsonic app.

I would look at MPD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Player_Daemon) and use that as a guide to what would be basic requirements or features to implement.
