Ok this might be kind of a loaded question so bear with me:
This project I'm working on deals with streaming music from one computer to another. I'm developing a website where users will be able to register, log in, and enter the IP address of their personal computer that has all their music files on it. Once this is done (and the computer with the music on it is configured correctly) the user will potentially be able to log in from anywhere and stream music from his/her remote personal computer to the computer he/she is currently working on.
I hope I didn't confuse anyone
What I'm wondering is...
1) ...if PHP is capable of accessing a person's file system in the way described above using a provided IP address, given the remote computer is setup to allow such a connection, and...
2) ...if there are better options than PHP, even if PHP can do this?
If more clarification is needed let me know. Any help is appreciated.
