Re: Audio streaming

looks complicated to setup with loads of different perl modules
needed. Has anyone used this or can recommend something which be set
up easily and be accessible via my website.

For something simplistic, use mod-music index. For me, installation
required adding about 15 lines to httpd.conf (mostly copied from
/usr/share/doc/libapache-mod-musicindex/example), and copying a
musicindex directory with images to a [www] root directory. It displays
a mix of directories and tag information. (Optionally, it can be used
alongside icecast if you wish to also install and configure icecast.)
mod-mp3 is apt-gettable: libapache-mod-mp3
(musicindex seems to be a fork of mod::mp3)
Package: libapache-mod-musicindex | libapache2-mod-musicindex
Description: Browse, stream, download and search through MP3/Ogg files
mod_musicindex is aimed at being a C implementation of the Perl module
Apache::MP3 (http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-MP3/).
It allows nice displaying of directories containing MP3 or Ogg Vorbis
and FLAC files, including sorting them on various fields,
streaming/downloading them, constructing playlists and searching.
