I wish that somehow we could stream music and play mp3s in the new
browser that help keep the space way down on my object path and take
less time to download

I know, I talked to someone about this on AW, but it was of course a nobody.
I know the guy who is the core programmer for server streams of mp3s. He
even has his own stream up.
His webpage is http://www.tagstrance.com
Anyways, Im sure its possible. Understanding how it works, all AW needs to
add is some MP3/network reading software. The biggest problem is what Hertz
the file would be. The larger the Hertz the more bandwidth. An average mp3
file is 4-5megs. So an 28k user would spend 10 minutes or more downloading
the file, or if your streaming the mp3, it would skip constantly.
If AW uses streaming, it wont be in trouble like Napster is, but if it does
require download, that would get AW in trouble :).

Napster wouldnt be in trouble either if Mettalica werent stupid crybabies
willing to ditch 34,000 of their biggest fans, and then go to court with 4 of
em. Same goes for that pussy rapper, Dr. Dre
