I'm in the process of setting up radio streams via liquidsoap that use playlists consisting entirely of remote files. I could use some advice on a particular point.
There's one site with a lot of music that I would like to add to my streams, but unfortunately will have to pass, because this site has a lot of large files (which is not a show-stopper) and appears to have a slow connection (large files PLUS slow connection... not so keen on that). Files are downloaded at an average of 30 KB/sec from this site. I have FIOS, so I know it's not my connection that's slow. I'm wondering where I should put my cutoff. Obviously, it should be above 30 KB/sec. This is really slow. Should I make it 100 KB/sec? 500? 1 MB/sec? This will help me later when I allow community members to recommend new material for the radio streams, at which point I mosey over to the recommendation and see how fast the connection is on that site. I hope this makes sense. Damien ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why?
