I have used the software at slimdevices.com to set up an audio server
which can stream to one or more devices. I happen to have a Squeezebox
in my living room, and use the Softsqueeze software client to play the
same feed down in the studio. Nice for a party!
The client and server software are all open source - awfully nice of them!
