For instance, I don't have the protocol specs for Xing Stream's works and the low end mpeg streams are not standards compliant at least that was the case 8 months ago or so with Xing Stream Works. If you noticed Real Audio's quality is getting better and it has native binary so support FreeBSD 8) The high end encoder/decoder for Real Audio is supposed to be Dolby AC3 perhaps one of the Progressive guys can step in an clarify. It may be relevant because if we are comparing low bandwith codecs with 100kb mpeg streams is not fair. Cheers, Amancio
