Possibly the most important decision was to branch off an existing opensource application designed for music streaming. While this cost a signficant amount of time in terms of getting used to their code base, and implementing the voting and UI in their framework, I think it ultimately saved time. However, this implementation tied us pretty closely to an using sql databases for a music management and votes. It is unclear whether this will scale very well, even to the 100 user mark.
In terms of UI design, people responded best to designs reminiscent of existing ones. For example, users liked having a tab interface for playlists. Although initally we thought it would be awkward, users also preferrred a simple table of all songs, rather than a more complex filtering system.
