I am also having the same problem.  I mount nfs remotely, and I can barely
stream at 128kbit, if I do ANYTHING else it garbles a lot, and if the
mp3's are any higher quality than they can't stream steadily.  Oh, and I
have a question for anybody in the know:  What exactly are the differences
between streaming audio (shoutcast), and nfs remote mounting?  I
understand the basics, but is information transfer any different?
