iTunes is great program except that it's a pig, so that got me started on a program to search and play your library more quickly. The other problem with iTunes for someone like me, who doesn't like carrying around an iPod, is getting at that music simply when your away from home. So this music player, called Barracuda, acts as a server for your library. Fire up another instance of Barracuda on the road and you're ready to access your home library no problem. It talks over web protocols so you should have not problem with work firewalls- if your boss will tolerate that kind of thing.
