Master iTunes/iPhoto library for multiple users

I recently upgraded my .mac subscription to the family pack and added my wife and son as users on my Mac. They were upset that the iTunes/iPhoto library wasn't the same as it had been with the Admin account (Me). Is there a way that my libraries for those respective programs can be shared with those two users? If so how should I go about doing that. Thanks.

This is from the macosx FAQs:

Share-itunes-libraries-same-computer.

You haven't said whether you want your wife/son to be able to add/remove/edit, but I'm hazarding a guess that you do.

Here are a few more tutorials:

iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users.

How To Share an iTunes Library And/Or an iPhoto Library Between Multiple Users On The Same System.
