Yeah, that's super annoying. The insistence of some UCCans to play novelty
tracks over and over, especially when other people have queued legitimate
music, has caused me much frustration.

I'd really like for there to be a way to a way to control who can play music
on the speakers. Before MPD we could just lock their accounts on the music
box, but MPD doesn't support advanced access control. I seem to recall Zanchey
setting up Ampache somewhere, which I think supports user authentication, and
is pretty nice to use too.

Of course, we'd still have to turn off remote MPD connections.
