How to: MPD (Music Player Daemon)??

Hi guys, im trying to set up MPD for mac, and cant seem to find tutorials anywhere on how to install it, i tried compiling it from source, and i get this:

configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

how can i fix this problem?

I plan on only using this on my HD, not over a network, is this possible with MPD? dont want to go through the trouble to get it set up if i cant do this.. thanks!
