<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Being one who deals with one software after
another, and now looking at the possibility of using icecast to stream ogg clips
on my website, I would like to ask before I go much further in the matter:
Is icecast likely to introduce further issues and irregularities among visitors
to my site? Will using icecast pull me deeper into programming, or will it
be mainly a matter of setup?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Right now I simply let people download with the
default open/save option, and I provide a link for an immediate download of
Winamp from my server for those not currently able to play oggs. This
particular method seems to eliminate as many mysterious issues as
possible.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
