A simple, clean way of doing it via Jquery (one of many options out there): http://www.happyworm.com/jquery/jplayer/
The (somewhat clunky) Microsoft way of doing it: http://www.mediacollege.com/video/format/windows-media/streaming/embed.html
Using an audio player that’s not proprietary is good UI practice. For instance, Flash isn’t available on all user’s computers. WMV (which the windows example uses) is a very windows-centric format, and may not be supported to some linux or mac users. Many people don’t run quick time, so the AAC format might not be a great format to embed.
