Share iTunes music across the internet with Zerospan Apps
Zerospan is a free application that can be used to let you share your iTunes music between two computers that are not on the same local network. For example, this lets you access music on your home computer while you are at work.

This page describes the setup process in detail; note that you'll have to tweak your Address Book a bit to make it work, but that's about the extent of the complexity.

or you can use this little utility, if you don't mind installing Application Enhancer ,
noTTL and Netowrk Beacon.

both are free .
it works great on 10.4.2 (have not tried anything pass that on the server)
and seems easier to install and configure...

These are both very cool solutions (and this is something I've been trying to solve). However, I use both PCs and Macs at work, so the solution proposed in the first comment is much better for me.

Apple provides Bonjour for Windows as a download, so using this method, I should be able to reach my iTunes music from my PC at work. Zerospan unfortunately requires both "ends" to have the software installed, which is Mac only.

You can also accomplish this for free using SlimServer http://www.slimdevices.com/pi_features.html
you dont need their player to accomplish the task..even though it is a nice appliance.

I updated the hint, because as of version 1.33, no Address Book tweaking is necessary.
