If Rhythmbox can play the music, it can share the music because play permissions are all that is necessary for sharing. Now you convinced him of some need to change his music directory to 777 perms for no good reason. Not to mention that your 2 postings provided no useful information to solve his problems which says to me that your answers are not to be trusted since you have no reservations about tossing out wild guesses on things you don't understand.
