Ah well, whatever was meant, using rawplayer works more or less as I'd hoped
(music doesn't re-cue from the start). It's not a "constant" stream (if no
MoH is playing at all, the stream "freezes" so the next person to get music
gets it from the point where the previous person left off...

The most amusing bit was when the original raw files I'd converted from MP3
using a Windows tool played at approx 2x their normal speed! Re-converting
with mpg123 fixed that...

Cheers!
Ade.
