Streaming MP3s on Demand?

Posted by Cliff on Thursday March 25, 2004 @10:40PM from the be-your-own-radio dept.

The Human Cow asks: "My computer teacher lets us listen to music while we code, but the 150 MB network drive limit kind of puts a damper on the variety of music I have access to. CDs and MP3 players are too much of a hassle to keep up with, so I started wondering if there was any way to set up a streaming radio station that was controllable from a remote PC. I looked at Shoutcast again to see if there was some option that I missed, but I didn't find much. Not having any luck on Google, I've decided to turn to you guys. Does anybody know of a program that'll let me set up a playlist at home and then remotely control it from school? Streaming MP3s on demand, maybe?"

Using a program called Rendezvous Beacon, you can trick iTunes into thinking your iTunes share at home is on the same subnet. It's really not that hard to get around Apple's restriction.
