Windows Media Encoder if you want to set up a playlist on the computer and listen to it on your axim, but require no control. Remember to ensure that your firewall is open for thew port you are using though (8080)!

I use a web-based streaming service called ORB (www.orb.com) for when i want control over my stuff. You can fairly easily set it up, and stream almost anything over the net to your axim. Useful for when I want to listen to music in uni (they have a wifi hotspot). Only problem is, it's net-based, so bandwidth aint as good as over a home network with WME.

Other than that I have no recommendations as I dont use anything else. Also, Orb streams divx etc fine to WMP10, so no need for betaplayer etc.
