Cloud

A question about Clouds.
I've got my digital music backed-up and stored safely, but I'd like to be able to stream to portable devices.
I decided against iTunes Cloud because of the 25,000 track limit and have bought KnowHow Livedrive......with the upload speeds I can get at home I think I'll be dead by the time everything uploads. Tracks that are uploaded stream to iPad and iPhone very quickly.
Has anyone solved this issue or any ideas? ..I live in a village so no chance of signing up to ultra fast fibre-optic connection around here as yet.
Thanks
John

Do you want to stream to those devices inside your home, or away from your home?

You could try something like streamtome which is an iOS app you run on your iPad or iPhone. You then run a server on your mac and either share your iTunes library or specific folders. There's another similar app that I forget the name of right now.

You dont have any option to bring your collection of music to a friend with good connectivity? Such as on an external harddrive or so?
