My office is thinking of setting up a media server with speakers connected to it so that everyone in our office can queue up music via a web app. Right now we just pass around a speaker cable. I'd like something like a jukebox, where the server plays its music through its speakers.
Does anyone know of a Linux web app we could install or some third-party web service that would allow anyone with access to the site/account to queue up music to be played on the media server?
Is there a webapp that could find shared music on the local network?

We use and are very happy with MPD.
Music Player Daemon (MPD) is a flexible, powerful, server-side application for playing music. Through plugins and libraries it can play a variety of sound files while being controlled by its network protocol.
There are many clients availible, web, linux, osx, iphone and windows.
