It’s an age-old problem: Your music collection sits idle on your home PC while you toil in silence at the office. Liberate your library with JukeFly, a free Web service that streams your music to any PC, as long as it’s online.
All you do is sign up for an account, then download the small Jukefly music-server applet (Windows only, alas). The software scans your PC for songs (it supports most unencrypted file formats, from AAC to WMA), a process that takes no more than a few minutes.
Now you just head to the JukeFly site, sign in, and presto: There’s your music, ready for streaming. You can also import M3U-formatted playlists (support for iTunes playlists is in the works). Because JukeFly is a streaming service, it requires you to leave your PC running. But that’s the only hitch I’ve found so far. JukeFly is a slick and simple way to access your music library at the office — or anywhere else.
