Is anyone of a Free Software alternative to Groove Networks? I like the idea that Groove is pushing but I'm decided to use only Free Software as much as I can.

  At this time, Groove is a Microsoft only application. With the implementation of Mono and C# on Linux it may be feasible/easy to port it to Linux. However, as Microsoft is a big owner of Groove stock, changes are that Groove may not port.
  
  To me it is seems that support of Linux clients will enhance Groove's chances of becoming important. When it does not, similar software will apear eventually and the gap between both worlds will only grow.
