Hi,

I just downloaded netjuke yesterday (v1.0 rc1) and it's great. I have a few 
questions though:-

1) Is it possible to create a user which only have read-only access i.e. 
they can search and stream but can't download or edit?

2) Is it possible for users to sign-up for a new account by themselves? For 
example, a link on the login page would allow them to sign-up and they would 
get an account with the privilages assigned in 1). They could then request 
to be 'upgraded' to a full account for downloading.

3) Why is the import done in PHP? Surely it would be much more efficient to 
write a native app which could be run on a cron job or whatever just to 
synchronise the DB to the media files?

4) Can you add more charts to the front page such as top ten artists by 
number of tracks etc?

Hope someone can answer these questions. I am willing to code some of the 
above if required (particularly the offline DB synchroniser) just let me 
know if you think I can help.

Cheers

James
