Since you are talking about the pc that's hosting the files, then /srv would be appropriate, although /opt 
would be appropriate too. At least in the most rudimentary sense of "sharing with others (other pc's)". I do 
heartily agree that the existing structure itself should not be trodden into oblivion. I am saying, however, 
that there are several choices that would be acceptable. Regardless, any linux client should use /mnt.
