Who said Icecast2 is a replacement? -2 can do most things -1 can do, so
maybe -2's different features are better for you? Use -2 then. It isn't?
Use -1. Or Shoutcast. Or Realmedia's Helix. Or whatever else there is.

the Icecast2 main developer are official enough.

Yes. You have to install Icecast2 by yourself. If that's too difficult
for you and you need Icecast2, pay someone to do it for you. Me pasting
the URL above was free.
