Streaming audio with Icecast and MuSE
HOME RADIO

Internet audio comes in many forms, from ordinary sound clip links to podcasts magically delivered with RSS-based push technology. Many listeners, however, will settle for nothing less than live content in real time. Internet radio broadcasts arrive at your home PC courtesy of a streaming server. You’ll find streaming servers on the Internet that can transmit live audio or video, pre-recorded playlists, or on-demand media. Most streaming servers provide source buffers and offer compression to reduce bandwidth costs.
