NV+ or Ultra
I am almost a complete noob and could really use some advice interpreting the jargon. First off, what I want to do is set up a centralised storage that can wirelessly stream my media (videos/music)...

The NV+ v2 would likely be much better than the NV+ with Squeezebox (but I don't think there's an add-on for it yet).
Personally I would go with the Ultra as it's Intel-based giving you the greatest variety of add-ons you can install on it and the best performance of the options you mentioned.
Having said that for simply streaming video files the wireless network would be the bottleneck. You can try with a wireless network but don't be surprised if the performance is poor compared to using a wired one.
