Description Blackketter Dean 2003-12-19 22:03:12 UTC

Currently, we only support MP3, but we could support others through transcoding (or not!)

Also FLAC.  Customers have told me that Foobar2k and Winamp with a special plugin can play FLAC 
streams over http...

This bug mentions formats other than wav and mp3 (aiff, ogg, shn, and flac),
which bug 131 does not.

It this bug is deemed a duplicate of bug 131, then the description of bug 131
should be extended to cover streaming in these other formats.

Perhaps it would be clearer to let bug 131 be about being able to stream wav
(and by extension being able to stream in more than one format), and create one
new bug for each format that people want to be streamable. This way prioritizing
and implementing each format is possible. I think there is trickyness related to
streaming each format that might be nice to discuss in a separate bug.

All imho, of course!
