OK...
You are essentially playing back music on your computer and speaking over it with your microphone. You need some sort of sotware that will take this sound data and send it to a server.
I use SAM2, which processes and re-encodes the mp3s as well as offering some fairly sophisticated DJing functions. Alternatively, you can use a WinAmp ShoutCast plugin to send the data straight from WinAmp.
When you stream the audio data to the server, it 'mirrors' the show so that many people can listen. You only send one stream to the server. Hundreds of people can connect to the server and hear what you're broadcasting.

Yes, but there's only a 10(ish) second lag. It's almost real-time.

Yes, you need to talk.
You can't use Media Player. I suggest you acquire SAM2; if not, use Winamp or QCD with the ShoutCast plugin.
