Today I had to clean up my flat, but I was lazy. I decided that some music will be welcomed. However, even if my flat is not so big, I have three rooms and if I play music in one of them, I can't hear it everywhere. By chance, there's a computer connected to speakers in each.

So, to listen your playlist on every computer, do like me: just install esound on each computer and run esd -tcp -public (esd without option is sufficient for your master). On your master, run also esdmon | esdcat -s slave1 and esdmon | esdcat -s slave2, and so on. This will listen to you local esd and pipe the sound to your slaves via network.

Then grab your favorite audio player which should be esd-capable (my xmms is), and play files to your local esound daemon. Listen... it plays everywhere!

Next step is to invite me, some friends and hot chicks to your party.
