An aquantance of mine has a CD collection and wants to rip it. They don’t want to stream it over a server but rather store it, say, on a hard drive connected directly to their speakers/receiver.

While they **don’t want to stream ** it wirelessly to/from their phone, they do want to control selection/playback.

Kind of like a remote controlled jukebox or, well, a really big CD player.

I am thinking there’s probably some raspberry pi project to play on-device music library that has a remote control library plug-in over LAN. I’d also like there to be a backup option, like a Pi GUI so they could see their library on the TV.

I’m envisioning an interface similar to the retro game players or kodi.

Does this exist?
