    Hi, I love iTunes feature of being able to access shared music over a network and stream it. I hate iTunes though...what a memory hog. I love Winamp, it's my player of choice and offers me the best sound quality I have heard thus far. But this isn't about that.

    Does any other player offer that sharing feature? Is there a Winamp plugin? It looks as though I could create a Radio station or something, but I want to listen to what I want remotely, not just what's playing.

    Thanks a bunch!

    You can download and use MS' Windows Media Connect from the MS website (Windows Media 11 Beta 2 has it built-in).
