I've been contemplating one of these:
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=735
It plays just about every file format you'd want to play (inc. mp3s avis 
oggs and flacs), and it will stream across the network or it will accept 
a USB drive plugged in directly.
I have the non-streaming USB version and am very happy with it on the 
whole, although I use it solely for avi files and have therefore not 
looked into what outputs it this might have for audio. I simply plug in 
a usb stick with the files on it, and then browse the menu on the TV and 
play.
Reasonably cheap at < £90.
Another similar alternative is the Logitech Squeezebox, although I've 
not looked at them since Logitech took over. That is designed 
specifically for audio (mp3s and Internet radio I believe).
