Yep. Someone did it, and open-sourced the hardware and software.
SlimP3 is a good choice. It's a box the size of a large remote control with a nice display taking up the whole front face. On the back is an ethernet jack and RCA jacks out to your amp. The box decodes, but all the other smarts are on the server. Runs under perl on any OS that has perl.
Also, the latest PC Mag has a run down of a bunch of the other similar options. The article isn't yet available on the pcmag.com website, so no link.
Your're right: There are very easy ways to bake and brew at home. However, Artesian bread-baking is to ready-bake bread machines as craft beers are to Budweiser. If you *really* want to bake bread, check out Crust and Crumb
Not that there's anything wrong with easy home-made bread, but if you're ready to move to the next level and impress other bakers, start here.
I have a Replay 4040, upgraded with a 160Gb drive. The Commercial Advance (tm) feature works great for me. It's at least as good as your typical spam filter. An occaisonal series of commercials doesn't get caught, and very rarely will it filter part of a show as a commercial. (I've seen parts of Alton Brown's cooking show get filtered, usually when he's doing the "talk through the 'fridge" bit right before or after a commercial. He closes the fridge door and Replay sees the black screen and thinks "commercial")
One fear in the Replay community at avs-forum is that the new Replay owners will cave to requests from networks to turn off the feature.

And IANA has reservered 86.75.30.9 so that doesn't help us either.

Remember, beer is liquid bread!
So, does anyone have the eDonkey link to the members only IEEE content?

As a bonus, get an ethernet controller and MP3 player in the hardware. $250.

About $150-200 depending on add-ons. --Chris
Actually, it looked a lot more like Cartman's mutant Trapper Keeper --C
