   Anyone got any hints, clues, experiences of Home Network Mediaplayers?

I'd like to buy something to connect to my HiFi, TV that is connected wirelessly to my home network. Ideally I'd like it to stand-alone (ie internal disc) and be able to stream music and video to it from any PC on the network. So far I have discovered their are a number of ways of doing this, each with their own problems.

	You might want to look at one of the "Squeezebox" products: http://www.slimdevices.com/ or look at Apple's "AirPort Express": http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/
