Since I already had one burned out Athlon as a coaster, I decided it would be better to store *recordings* of much on my server, rather than the *printed music* itself. :-D All joking aside, your questions begs for "more detail". If you simply want file storage, lots has already been said. If you are looking for a server to "stream" audio to the network, there are several programs for that, also, including gnump3d, icecast, DarwinStreamingServer, xbms, gini, and even an Apache webserver module that will do "streaming".
