I'd rather have my music in a real db that I could access from anywhere.

There's nothing illusory about the db in the supplied server software. But you're right about the access-from-anywhere thing; someone ought to come up with desktop Receiver-protocol players for Windows and Linux. (Yes, Roger, you can stream stuff out of the web server, but that's never going to be as pretty as a native application, or even a Java one.)
