Apple Computer's iTunes music player contains a feature that allows you to share your entire music library or specific playlists with up to five other computers on a network. Other users can browse the items that you've advertised using their own copy of iTunes and select music that they'd like to listen to. Your computer then streams the music in real time to the requester.
