Can anyone tell me what is the best program to use to stream music to my ps3? I have a ton of music on my computer that I want to play through my system...

If you have windows xp media center that works pretty well and easy for mp3s. You can try Nero, tversity or Redkawas media servers as well. Just google ps3 media server.

2nd. I've been using that since I got the PS3 and it's been working like a charm.

I used to use TVersity but I can fast forward and rewind videos better with WMP11.

You might as well use this since you probably already have it installed and therefore don't have to pay for it. The other streaming programs on the market usually have to be purchased.

In order to get it running:
-Open Media Player
-Access the drop-down menu on the 'Library' tab
-Select 'Media Sharing'
-Put a checkmark in the 'Share My Media'
-Highlight the 'Unknown Device'
-Click on 'Allow'

Voila... now you just have to customize what folders from your computer hard drive you'd like to stream.
