[mythtv-users] OT: Stream Music around the house

[Damian]

Hello all,

Sorry this is off topic, but you lot are the best people I can think of 
to ask.

What would you do (or what are you doing) to stream music around a house 
into rooms that don't have PC's?

My girlfriend really wants to have music in whichever room she's in, not 
just blast it from one room in the hope that she can hear it while she's 
doing other things. I can easily put some speakers in a couple of the 
main rooms, but what are my options for what to plug them into? I've 
wondered about outputting a radio signal from the main music computer 
that could be picked up by a low cost unit placed with the speakers in 
each room but I'd love to hear your thoughts. Ideally, she'd be able to 
have some level of control over the sound and even which music files are 
playing, but maybe that's asking a bit much without another computer 
present.

As ever, cost is an issue. If the best solutions are expensive, I guess 
I could just wire metres of stereo cable around the house. That may even 
be the best option come to think of it. I have a wired network between 
all my machines because I'm over paranoid of WiFi health risks. 
Especially with a new baby on the way.

Looking forward to hear what you come up with!

Cheers
Damian
