Samuel,

You'll need to install and operate a 'streaming server' to deliver content the way you want. Read up at

http://www.realnetworks.com/getstarted/index.html?src=broadcast

for more info. Microsoft also makes a version of a streaming server, as well as several other vendors.

Note: It would be very difficult to try to develop it yourself.

We have music distributed on 3 three PCs and the homepage makes a great place to pull together all the files. But when we click on a link to an MP3 file, we get the standard two options, save or open from here. In either case it pulls the file across the network. We would really rather it play the file from where it is stored. I guess we need to stream the data?
