I am doing this mainly so I can jam while at work to my own shit instead of the same 20 songs over and over on the radio.

Looking for the easiest way to get it setup so I can throw a bunch of CD's in a folder on my home PC and stream them while at work so I need an .asx or .rm file to add to the radio player

This for sure.

Or just ask me for a username and password and stream from my WHS ;) Orb works very well though.

Orb is the shit. Its what I use to watch movies downstairs on my TV that are stored on my media drive upstairs.

I concur. Although orb streaming to Wii doesn't do a very good job at all. I had a pc in there and i just used mapped network drive to my server in that case.

It does the job well enough for me. You just can't fast forward or rewind while it plays.

With your upload speed so shitty you may have some issues.

I dont do a lot of uploading, that speed does not bother me.

Yes but if you are trying to stream something from home it probably will not work with a very slow upload speed as you don't have the bandwidth to actually stream the audio/video.

Yeah, I dont really have the need though...

The most streaming I do is between my computer and my ps3

The computer has to idle for it to work. I can't multitask with it.

Upload speed is irrelevant if he uses it the way I do.
