Hello all!

Our Music Library used the Variations software as a way to share/stream digital audio for their users.  As I understand, this software is no longer updated and has not been since 2009.  Since this software is starting to show its age, so to speak, we are looking for alternate audio streaming sources.  If your institution uses an audio streaming software, can you tell me what it is you're using?   One feature of Variations that was a top favorite among staff and readers is the 'auto page turning' feature which has the ability to turn score pages while the selection plays.  Other desirable features would be the ability to post video subscription urls and to easily support course reserves.  I've heard of other media system tools such as Avalon, Kaltura and of others that could stream digital audio such as Overdrive and possibly ContentDM.

I write to ask members of this list on what you are using to stream digital audio at your institution and for you to share any feedback you have for this tool.  Does the audio streaming software you're using have the ability to do any of the three things I listed above?  Or can you recommend anything that has the ability to turn musical scores/pages while listening to its music selection (so far I have not heard of anything that can do this).

Thank you! Cindy
