GNUMP3d is available as a Gentoo package:

    http://www.gnump3d.org/

You run it on your server.  In its config file, you point
to a directory with mp3 or ogg files.  It will do the magic
work of converting files to streams, so you can choose and
play music from another box on your network.

Hope this helps,
Ed
