Man, that is such a cool program. Streaming all your mp3's to your phone is awesome.

Nope. I dont use my Droid as a music machine. Just calls, text, and web. Also weather, and news.
And sometimes games.
Actually, now that I think about it, music is the only thing I dont use on it.

Interesting. Same with my Milestone and iPhone. Heck even my iPod Touch didn't serve as a huge music device. I would use it from time to time for music, but I used it far more for apps and games and email. LOL. I guess the only time I really used a phone for music was my Walkman phone.

Same here. ~7GB of mp3s on my Nexus One's memory card plus internet radio is enough for me. If I had a bigger microSD card I'd be able to fit my entire mp3 collection. Subsonic seems cool but for me it's unnecessary.

I tried, but ran into two problems.

First, I keep all my music on a NAS. Subsonic was unable to locate any music on the NAS even when it was mapped to a drive letter.

Second, which I'm sure I could fix but didn't bother due to issue one, subsonic on my Droid was able to locate and login to my PC, but was unable to see any music (I had copied some to my C drive to test it. The web browser client was able to see the music, the droid was not)

Really! I have my music on a NAS drive. But all my machines are Ubuntu and that works fine

I have over 26gb of music so it works well for me.

That looks pretty interesting. I may have to give that a try...and see if work blocks the stream.

You need to forward a port, so unless you are network admin at your work, don't count on it working.
