  Windows users can simply copy the <code>ezstream.exe</code> file from the
  binary distribution archive (.ZIP) to any location of their choosing.
- As of version 0.3.0, the Win32 version of ezstream no longer requires any .DLL
- files and is entirely self-contained.
- Because of this simplicity, an installer is no longer provided.
  Users, who wish to be able to run ezstream anywhere on their system, can add
