asterisk users - Mar 2011 - Streaming Hold Music

Does anyone have a good solution to stream hold music to the Asterisk/FreePBX
server? I currently have setup WinAMP using ShoutCast but it appears to a very
touch and go stream, being that it seems to periodically drop the connection.

Asterisk 1.6, FreePBX 2.8, WinAMP v5.6

Stream from where? Why would you need WinAMP in the mix?
