Can you do streaming video too?  I have a friend who was asking me
what sort of free or cheap video streaming servers were out there and
I thought I'd seen something about an ogg vorbis video codec, but I
didn't really know what to tell him other than, go look it up yourself
:)

On a somewhat related note, if you have pre-recorded audio or video is
the only reason for streaming just so the user doesn't have to wait
for a huge file to download before he can start playing it?

P.S.  I used the ogg stream from ksl for the football games.  Pretty
nice.
