How about this:

You have any number of Gigabytes of MP3 files on a NT4-based server, and play
them thoughout your house, via various PC's on your in-house 100BTX network.
Some of your PC's play music through sound cards in the PC's, but your main
system uses a sound card with digital output that is linked to the digital
controller (DAC & Dolby Digital decoder) that is the core of your 5.1 audio
system.

My MP3 collection, my house! ;-)
