+forked-daapd is a DAAP (iTunes), MPD (Music Player Daemon) and RSP (Roku) media
+server. It is a complete rewrite of mt-daapd (Firefly Media Server).
+
+It has support for AirPlay devices/speakers, Apple Remote (and compatibles),
+MPD clients, Chromecast, network streaming, internet radio, Spotify and LastFM.
+
+It does not support streaming video by AirPlay nor Chromecast.
+
+DAAP stands for Digital Audio Access Protocol, and is the protocol used
+by iTunes and friends to share/stream media libraries over the network.
+
+RSP is Roku's own media sharing protocol. Roku are the makers of the
+SoundBridge devices.
