I'm working on mStream which is a server that aims to be as simple as possible to setup and run

Its slow progress development wise. Making this easy takes a lot of time. Currently the sever is in good condition but it desperately needs a mobile app

That's very cool. For my purposes, I'm less concerned with the server-side; I'm kinda hoping to put the music in the cloud somewhere and outsource server administration. In any case, these users are in no way going to be setting up server themselves. They don't know what "server" means and don't use the word in sentences.

My goal is to combine mStream with this project.

With this mstream server could automatically tunnel through a cloud service that gives them a domain and SSL certs.

This way I dont have to pay to host any of the users files on the cloud. All I need is a unlimited bandwidth vps to do the tunneling. And the user doesn't need to know what a server is, they just need to be able to run mStream.

I actually made a proof of concept which worked well. I just couldn't justify scaling it until I get a mobile app finished.
