The following shell script can be used to stream a play list with netcat.  Remember only one client can connect to netcat at a time.  If you keep all your mp3s one one box and want to play them on another you might find this handy.
Your playlist should be called playlist and be in the same directory as this shell script.  If all your mp3s are in one dir an easy way to make a playlist is to do ls -1 *.mp3 >playlist

To run do
./play.sh|nc -l -p 9999
Then to connect using winamp do add:add url then do the ip of the computer and the port.  For example 192.168.1.1:9999

#!/bin/sh
FILE=playlist

echo "HTTP/1.0 200 OK"
while [ 1 ]
do
  if [ -f $FILE ] ; then
    exec 5<&0 <$FILE
    while read LINE ; do cat $LINE ; done
    exec 0<&5 5<&-
  else
    exit
  fi
done
