Actually, I'm not sure what's the other word would be.

Anyway, if I share my mp3 folder on my PC, and using Resco to get there, and play the music that are stored there, am I correct by saying that I am "streaming"?

It's play pretty good, in fact I can even watch movie stored in my HD with no problem. So, by doing this, am I "streaming"?

Oh, and if that's not streaming, how do I stream?

Thanks in advance...
