Re xmms2 Miniprod malquoted operations. :-)

Because I haven't installed xmms2 on my system, I'm not 100 percent
sure, but according to http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/wiki/Main_Page
it seems that you have to run xmms2 on the box that holds your files
(server) and control the program's operations via the computer with
the better speakers (client) by means of an xmms2 client application.

A daemonic concept. =^_^=
