I'm running a soundblaster live sound card, and I'm very happy with it.
I have looked at some of those personal FM transmitters and I'm seriously 
thinking about getting one.  I can listen to music or internet radio 
anywhere in the house, or back yard.  I saw one that had a range of 300 
feet.  It would make listening to MP3's much easier.  Just start the 
computer and tune it in on any FM radio in the house.  How great is that?
