+configurable audio file selectors:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+       There are three audio file selectors (aka "database tools")
+       available:
+
+               - random
+               - plm (playlist manager)
+               - mysql
+
+       The first two of these are rather simple, and they are always
+       supported. They allow streaming of randomly selected files
+       or files given by a playlist respectively.
+
+       The (optional) mysql selector is more involved. It manages
+       statistics on your audio files and audio file selection is
+       done by sending a user-defined sql-query to the mysql server.
+       This allows rather sophisticated configurations and is
+       explained in detail in README.mysql.
+
+       It is possible to switch between all supported selectors at
+       any time.
