>H) Duration of transmission (to nearest second), I) Sound Recording Title: FreeDB [freedb.org], anyone? Regardless, these should already be represented in the music files that are broadcast, as song length and filename.
It is my understanding that webcasting uses UDP (connectionless User Datagram Protocol) to send the files. With no acknowlegement mechanism the server has no way of registering which packets arrived, which did not, or when. If I decide to disconnect before the song ends, the packets die under TTL, and the server is not notified. The current system does not allow the webcaster to accurately record the exact duration of transmission to the second.

Just this woman's opinion but, I could never truly respect a man who doesn't demonstrate some intellectual traits of a life form higher than your average couch-vegetable. My father was a bespectacled, pocket-protector wearing, multiple degreed geek, the very coolest kind. He knew the answers to all my homework, and filled several rooms of the house with his electronic workshop. We learned to solder and strip wires in the living room. I think that no woman should settle for less.
When I read this article my first reaction was excruciating memories of 13 years of public school. I soaked up everything the teachers and books could give, but I hated being near the other students. I was nervous, shy, and clumsy and finally dropped out of college.
Now I have learned to do what is needed to function as closely to normal as is necessary, returned to college, and life is OK. I loved the line "Autisitic people can see things out of context--the starting point for invention." We see the trees, we know the forest is there, but the trees are what are important. And now I *like* it this way.

Just a thought.
