There already is the command line to start/stop the MM service:

For MM4:
sc start MediaMonkeyService
sc stop MediaMonkeyService

For MM5:
sc start MediaMonkey5Service
sc stop MediaMonkey5Service

Just ensure that you installed MM as service (Options > Media Sharing > [Install as service...])

Hi,
No it is not possible to do that in MM, but I agree it would be useful in some cases.
