You can stream MP3s quite easily, without a special server. You simply
need to create a meta file with the URL of the MP3, and send the correct
Content-Type header, audio/x-mpegurl m3u. I created a little 2 line PHP
script that automates this process. I originally did something like this
in the UserTalk language (the programming language in Frontier) for http
streaming of RealAudio files. 

This link points to that script, and the file that this URL points to will
stream...

If anyone is interested in the script let me know. I've been toying with
the idea of using this with iTunes 4 in some way, I just haven't figured
out what I want to do yet.
