As far as Ubuntu running in a linux/windows environment, that is no
problem.  You would run SAMBA which allows the linux to share its disks
on the network so Windows can see it.  You can move files to/from
windows, update files on the linux side, modify with mp3tag from the
windows machine.  That's what I have running.  There was a learning
curve, and was some work getting the Samba service setup the way I
wanted.  You might look into the Vortexbox application  - I believe
there is a complete Vortexbox "appliance" available which is integrated
hardware and software, but I think you can also get just the software
which is a Linux OS setup with Squeezebox Server, SAMBA, and also apps
to rip CDs directly.
