The installation of the Java Run Time Environment is a bit of a pain, you have to register with Oracle, but worth the effort. This is the only media server you will need for your music once installed.

Hats off to Simon for all his hard work.

Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about the need to register with Oracle. It's possible to use OpenJDK instead, but the ARM version of this is so slow that I don't recommend it. Perhaps one day there will be an OpenJDK for ARM with good performance.

Using OpenJDK would be a viable option for Intel, but this requires enabling root SSH access and using apt-get to install it. You'd also need to manually add a link in /usr/local/bin to the java executable.
