-To prevent mpd from running as a system service, disable its startup
+The recommended way to run a "personal" mpd, as your own user while logged into
+a graphical user session from which a pulseaudio daemon has been started (as is
+the default in Debian nowadays), is to disable the default system service
 using the command (as root) "update-rc.d mpd disable". mpd is then
 started through the XDG autostart mechanism upon logging into your desktop
 environment, provided it can find a valid config file (such as ~/.mpdconf).
+Starting from the provided mpdconf.example, you'll likely want to uncomment and
+adjust all options in the "Files and directories" section, set bind_to_address
+(see below) as well as enable the non-optional pulse configuration.
 
 In the default /etc/mpd.conf, bind_to_address is set to "localhost" in
 order to prevent other (possibly untrusted) hosts from accessing MPD.
