    What is MPD?

    MPD (Music Player Daemon) is a server-client audio player long popular with Linux users. The headless daemon runs as a background service, typically on a remote audio server. Music is then accessed via a GUI client frontend, which connects to the MPD server to stream content.

    Kind of like running your bespoke, curated music streaming service, in a sense.
