Re: radio reception with the fillings in my teeth.

Most .wav files are limited to 8kbps sampling, and most radio stations are 24kbit max streaming rate, if that. They don't do a thing for people used to 44kbps CD music.

If you have a recent Netscape browser, you probably have Winamp installed. Go to www.shoutcast.com and listen to one of the links marked for 96kbps streaming rates or better. (96, 128, 160, and 196 don't do anything to improve on 44kbps sampling, but they greatly reduce the rate of errors that affect the replay, provided you can actually get the max rate from your network link and all the hops in between.)

This is the sort of system that DIG should be looking at for streaming. Sending old-world sound and video out for money would be an astonishing mistake.
