Free mp3 server, perl scripts.  Runs ok and can push a playlist stream
to any ip address.
http://www.slimp3.com/su_downloads.html Works with any mp3 player, not
sure if it can handle ogg.  I would like the hardware device out in the
garage, but it's a little pricey for me. :(

Also, http://www.netjuke.org looks nice.  I haven't had time to play
with it yet but a co-worker who has says it seems to be working for him.

Tower:
Get one of the mutha-fuggin' huge hard drives they have out these days
and turn it into=20
your house MP3 jukebox!

Back when I lived in one room, I used to do this, sort of.  I bought a
widget that had a=20
headphone jack on one end and the twin audio jacks for hi-fi systems on
the other end=20
(got it at RatShack), plugged the headphone end into the soundcard, the
audio jacks end=20
into the hi-fi, and I was good to go.

Yours would be more complex, but only slightly.  You'd set it up as a
headless terminal,=20
one NIC, very lightweight Linux install. Rip all your CDs to mp3 and
copy 'em on over.=20
Park the box near your stereo system and control mpg123 (or whatever)
remotely.

Slightly less cool but much more practical... do you have a firewall
yet?
