The filesystem shouldn't matter.  You should just be able to pick a common 
format that the clients can deal with.  E.g. I've exported my iTunes 
directory from the Mac to FreeBSD via NFS and then just pointed xmms at 
the directory tree.  As long as xmms has the right codec, it'll work.

Your problem isn't the FS, it's finding a generic enough directory/file 
layout that will work without too much pain across on your range of 
clients.
