i discovered the windows-only
streamer
and
opendj
for linux etc [ which hopefully means it’ll be easy to get running
on
os x ].
perhaps with a little luck “judio”
is around the corner:
“We need net “radio” that pulls its content, as-needed,
from a P2P sharing space.The “broadcaster” would really just provide an ever-refreshing
playlist, a window on the last X minutes of contiguous content,
with reliable (hash) identifiers naming each segment of media to
play. “Tuners” would fetch the playlist, and scour any and all
available sources for matching content fragments, grabbing them
seconds to minutes before they are needed, playing them for the
local listener in order and without gaps, resharing them for as
long as possible, discarding them when necessary.” Call it “Judio”, for “Judo-radio”, because it emphasizes the use
of a tiny, smart control channel to leverage a giant amount of
content on outside networks.”
