You were given some good starting points for on line docs to get your 
more familiar with what you're getting into.
With a little effort in bringing yourself up to speed with FreeBSD, you 
will find how incredibly easy it is to build a
robust, secure, stable and reliable system where you get what you expect.

Here's a small peek into FreeBSD accommodating you're goals;
FreeBSD has a software/application repository called ports, (this thing 
is truly amazing!).
Within the ports directory you will find apache and mod_mp3. This will 
give you a web server with streaming mp3
capabilities. Not including the time to load up your mp3 collection and 
web pages, you could have this system
up, running and ready to satisfy your goals within an hour or 2, (taking 
that you have fast Internet connection and hardware)!

Read the Handbook on the FreeBSD site, use the mailing lists. Also grab 
a book. Two books that
helped me get started were Ted Mittelstaedt's 'The FreeBSD Corporate 
Networker's Guide' and Michal Urban
and Brian Tieman's 'FreeBSD Unleashed 2nd edition'.
