Kenny - Thank you for your input and for telling us about SAVE. I look forward to seeing the product when it is released. Do you have a timeframe as to when that might be? All - I'd still love to hear what audio streaming software you're using at your institution.

We call it the Streaming Audio & Video Experience (SAVE) and will be releasing it open source in the next six months. You might consider building your own system around JPlayer or consider trying SAVE when it is released.
