Music in the house...

We are planning to add music to several rooms in our house and wondered what others have decided upon?

There a several audio streamer systems now (Sonos, Roku, etc.), some hand built systems, or just using an extra computer with SongBird or the like. What are others using? What are others recommending? A remote control would be cool but not absolutely necessary.

As long as you're not playing Apple DRMed music, I'd echo [livejournal.com profile] mcl's suggestion about the Squeezebox. Check the website for their current capabilities, I had a 1st generation, so any transcoding from AAC or MP4 to MP3 had to be done on the server. If you have any iTunes store bought music, you'll need an Airport Express.
