The big benefit of MinimServer is that it is so configurable. Users are often unaware that much of their experience of the control point (in particular the selection menus used in browsing) is actually provided by the server. (For those who are concerned about the security implications of running Java on, say, a PC, those problems essentially go away if you disable Java in your browser(s), which is a setting in the Java setup.)
