[icecast] ideas for on-demand streaming

[Gary Major]

What you could do, if you were so inclined, is to write a shell script that
would cycle through your directories and create symbolic links in your main
directory. Not pretty at all, but would solve your issue.

Alternatively, a script could be written to cycle through your directories
to create a custom web page to display ALL songs. A little prettier and
again would solve your issue.

My script writing ability, however is not up to the task.
