Share MP3 files on Kubuntu machine with other machines on network?

[Art Alexion]

I haven't played much with iTunes and haven't used winamp since I
switched to Linux 5 years ago.  I have imported my Linux music
directories into iTunes manually by adding the network share to the
folders where iTunes looks.

BTW, if you've tried amaroK which comes with Kubuntu, there are fewer
reasons to use iTunes on windows (unless you are using it to buy from
the Apple store).
