MID = Mobile Internet Device, such as maybe an iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad or PDA etc with internet access. I gather with the web interface of VLC, it's possible to have the PC plugged into say, a stereo system so it can play music and it can be controlled using a web browser on a phone etc (so you don't have to get up and switch tracks/volume etc without getting up and doing it on the PC).
