Just set the filename of the player to the URL.

Note that with most MP3s QT will have to download the whole thing before 
playing.  But if memory serves you reference the MP3s in an M3U 
playlist, in most cases QT will play it in a streamed fashion.

A brief discussion of playlist formats is at:

Instructions for exporting M3U from iTunes are at:
