Internet audio generates a lot of press because it is associated with sharing MP3 music files. Streaming audio is more similar to a radio transmission, where audio is heard as it is delivered, rather than downloaded onto a PC and then played at will. This comprehensive beginner's guide covers all aspects of authoring and streaming audio, from basic requirements to finding a host and serving audio from personal or company web pages. Comparisons of the major streaming formats and servers are especially useful. For larger libraries.
