retune
Most of my music ends up in iTunes but I've never liked using the iTunes GUI. This app allows a remote client to add, show and skip songs in a queue. A Sinatra web service, defined in retune.rb, provides the interface. The rb-appscript gem provides the ruby to AppleScript bridge to control iTunes.
Startup
On startup a playlist named "queue" is created in iTunes if it does not already exist. A polling thread is also started that monitors the playlist and removes skipped and played songs.
Notes
The app works on OS X and has not been tested on Windows.
