Wonderful thread! thank you dude 🙂 I thinked (foool!) I were the only one so geek and so daap-lover to plan to do something like this 😀
No, you’re not the only one. There’s plenty of geeks around here… 😆
That’s an interesting box you’re looking at. Please let us all know if you go for it. The CPU is certainly capable enough. I did run four instances on an NSLU2 (266MHz). I currently have four instances running on a Via C3 processor at 533MHz under Windows 2000, but will soon be switching that box over to Debian. Either way, the processor still has plenty of performance in reserve.
Another way, if you want to hack hardware – the NSLU2 can be modified to make the extra USB ports on its processor chip accessible. The NSLU2 Linux pages have some good info on this.

Good luck!
