No i don't think that there are any.

BTW, i wonder why the xiph guys didnt make any tool(s) that showcase
peeling...

Peeling can be useful in case u dont have the CD anymore, or the wav
file :)

BTW, does shoutcast automatically re-encode mp3s to lower bitrates??
coz a friend of mine played his mp3s which were 196kbps, and the radio
was only 96kbps.. i wonder how it works..
