But you have to implement that at both the server and client end, in which 
case you've got yourself a some sort of protocol. It might as well be one 
that a lot of clients already speak, and which has many of the techincal 
problems sorted out. 

I expect streaming multimedia really wants packet ordering implemented in 
the protocol somewhere, and probably could implement some sort of 
retransmission if it throttle them back, or set a timeout on them, so the 
server wouldn't bother if it was unlikely that the retrasmitted datagram 
would make it into the buffer before playback.

Anyway. This is really stuff for the icecast list.
