From an organizational standpoint it's better to use a system account for a service as opposed to a normal user account. Will also keep mympd out of the login dialog.
from the man page:
-r, --system
Create a system account.
System users will be created with no aging information in /etc/shadow, and their numeric identifiers are chosen in the SYS_UID_MIN-SYS_UID_MAX range, defined in /etc/login.defs,
instead of UID_MIN-UID_MAX (and their GID counterparts for the creation of groups).
Note that useradd will not create a home directory for such a user, regardless of the default setting in /etc/login.defs (CREATE_HOME). You have to specify the -m options if you want
a home directory for a system account to be created.
