The PS3 doesn't offer that by itself. The PSP does offer Internet Radio but they limit it to two collections of stations - but one of them is "ShoutCast" so I'm sure it won't be long before somebody figures out a way to stream WinAmp to it. I think that your best bet is a web-enabled solution - something that streams to Flash. I know that Orb (www.orb.com) does something like this (you can "MyCast" channels or playlists of your choice to the network - it streams them to Flash real-time). I don't have it installed anymore but it says you can share your playlist with anybody - and the PS3 is a fine client. You'd just open the PS3 browser and go to the page and activate the current stream I believe. I'm sure there are other clients out there that could do the same thing - all you're looking for is a Flash-based client that the PS3 can show. The main problem is I don't think you're ever really going to get truly simultaneous play. I think you'll always see at least a small delay when you stream since there's more work to do on the client than the host. The host just "plays" the audio (and is probably faster than the client) while the client has to wait for the network and decode and all - I think even in the best of cases you might see a lag. Still - give it a shot. I'm curious to know if you get anywhere.
