Playing internet radio through house speakers?

I have a surround in ceiling speaker system. I want to plug the wires into my computer to play internet radio. How would i do that? do they make a special sound card for that? or some kind of mini amplifier for computers. Can any one help. Thanks. (no i am not looking to cut the end off of ear phones and wire them up that way)

There is an adaptor that goes from your computer headphone jack to the aux input on your receiver. Works fine and is cheap.

Or you can just buy a media center. They hook up to your stereo and have a wireless connection to your pc where you steam music or even video.

Here is a cheap one that will do music although you need to spend a lot more for a good one that does video too
