I've searched quite a bit, and I simple can't find what to do to simply stream music to my phone. Ive read about some emby addons some plex addons. I just want a free way to listen to my music on the go. I don't want some extremely technical terminology, but I'm capable enough of some pretty intermediate tasks. Honestly, I've doing going at this for a really long time, and havent found a direct answer yet. I just want it to be up front, specific to my need. Ive messed around with quite a few of the settings, so whatever port forwarding or etc. I need to do, I've already either done it, or havent seen the option to. Also, what whould I need to do on my phone to get this to work too. PC hardware definitely isnt an issue, internet isnt an issue, and my phone is a Note 3. I plan on taking this task full out this weekend (12/3, 12/4), so answers before then would be nice.

Ive seen this be done through kodi, and the reason i have it is because I read that its one of the best ways to do it.

I also know that kodi is a Home Media program, but Ive seen it has options for online sharing, and Ive seen others use it.

Options:
You can install kodi on an android phone if you want to play music on it.
Or you can share the music on your kodi computer via UPNP and use a upnp client on your phone.
Or you can sure the music on your kodi machine via smb and use an smb mounter on your phone
Also yatse may play music on the phone, it will with videos.
