I don't know exactly what it is you want to do, but if you do not care
about latency, use something like icecast and stream an MP3 of whatever
it is you want to play to a bunch of machines running xmms (or if god
forbid they are windows boxes, winamp or something ;).

Does that sound like it will fit the bill for ya?
