The awesome thing about this is that itunes by default creates all the xml files containing the metadata that you nerds desire. Webserver + XML created lists = Nerds Happy.

Now be warned this will only work on devices that can access a built in Media player & website viewer. Any PC running Linux or windows have integrated players. MAC as well.
I believe that this should work as a network streamer to something like a PDA or PSP.
I'm uncertain of players like the DS and the wii.
If you are using a wii specifically, i think that you will have to purchase the full version.
Quoted from the website:
The full version has the following features in addition to the free version:
**** Flash player for playback directly in your browser
* Unlimited user accounts (free edition: 3 user)
* Unlimited watch folder (free edition: 1 folder)
* Run MyTunesRSS without GUI and configure it via JMX
* Create and use a mytunesrss.com account
* Upload files to the server via the web interface
* Optional download limit per day/week/month for a user
* Set maximum number of files in a ZIP archive per user
* User may (optionally) change his password in the web interface
* Discover other MyTunesRSS server on the local network
* Themes and language packs for the web interface
* External database systems (MySQL and Postgres)
* Configurable welcome message for the web interface
* Transcoder support
* Bandwith limit per user
* Cover thumbnails in the album browser
* Limit user to the tracks of a playlist
It's only $25.05 CAD. Totally worth it and easy to configure.
I have been using the Free one for a couple of days, but since this is going to be valued for my wii, I will have to upgrade to the full version.
