Ah man thats lame!  I was really hoping you could listen while playing games.  I haven't been putting any music on my hard drive just for that reason alone.

If only I could figure out how to stream music to my 360 from my PC, but I just can't figure out how to.


That is actually very straight forward. Obviously you have the Media Center extender but that requires you have the Media center on your PC which is now reasonably common now that it comes with lots of versions of Vista and the soon to be Vista. Also you have the Media Extender client thingy which used very briefly.  

The other is to use 3rd party streaming and encoding on the fly which is what I do. This allows you to stream Internet feeds such as the BBC Replay service as well as Movies, Music and Pictures.

I use TVersity http://tversity.com/ and have done for a long while and it works really well. Others to look out for are http://www.boxee.tv/homepage/  although this is not yet available for the Xbox at least but looks really good.

Sweet thanks.  I'll look into it.
