but i have my library on my phone, why stream it?
So you don't have to rescan every time?
But then you need to stream it every time, which is more frequently.
I mean yeah, it's basically "build your own Spotify." Also, you get to free up that space on your SD card, little side bonus.
I'm aware, but if you have the free space, why waste the bandwidth?
Just two different solutions to the problem, I guess.
