That's something I thought of myself, too. Is there a difference here 
between services that OC provides? There are quite a few services 
(webdav file, address book, calendar sync, mozilla sync). Are these 
services any better from the security point than the ampache API? The 
more services we use on different gadgets the more the security risk, 
that is clear. But is there any difference between services? Just curious.
