iTunes library as a source

[scottjbarr]

Nice work @mjibson. Moggio is very cool. I love the way multiple sources are brought together.

Thought I would open this up to see if anyone would be interested in an iTunes backend? If the server is running on the same machine as my iTunes library it should be possible to play the audio, maybe with afplay (not sure, I haven't got my iTunes library on this machine).

Not sure how this fits in though. I haven't looked into how the sources/backends are built yet.

This would be great. I don't use iTunes at all, though, so I'm unlikely to work on it. afplay isn't usable since it can't pause, for example, and I don't want to rely on a separate program to play music. We would need a go package that can do this, either by decoding AAC files directly or some other means.

Good point re afplay.
