Anybody run these servers? What are pros and cons in your opinion? TIA, Kevin Kinsey PS> My opinion: Not sure. Either requires winamp, or something even a little more obscure, for Windoze, and most of those lusers only have RealPlayer anyway. So, it basically comes down to stabillity and security, as well as operation issues. That's why I'm asking for anyone who's using it now to speak up. I would definitely appreciate any responses....
