I just open sourced Muxamp, a streaming media playlist in Node.js

Hey HN! I've been working on Muxamp for over a year now, and I decided that there's no point in keeping the source closed. (I never planned on making money from it.) I've learned a lot since I started, and I hope others can benefit from its release--and perhaps teach me a thing or two as well :)

I just open sourced Muxamp, a streaming media playlist in Node.js launched on March 17, 2013 with 32 votes, #87 of 671 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 13 years on.
