[ale] home media/file server

[Sparr]

I haven't kept up with media streaming technology for the past 5-10 years
(UPNP is still hot stuff to me), especially proprietary stuff (like how an
XBox360 gets media from a Windows desktop on a home network). However, I
now find myself in a house full of people who want to share all of our
media with each other, and do all of our media acquisition, with a
centralized server.

I do not want to spend more than a few days tinkering with configuration
files and network daemons and such. Is there a good mostly-Free mostly-free
solution to this problem?
