Most VOD algorithms assume that once the user selects a video for playback, the server does not respond until it can playback the video.
Netstreamer [NS] is similar but uses a lower quality audio format.
Shoutcast [SC] streams MP3s using HTTP on top of TCP.

eacdoc EAC is a new audio grabber for CD-ROM drives.
I always had to listen to all grabbed waves, because other audio grabber will do only jitter correction but CD-ROM drives reading scratched CDs often produce distortions.
Fast extraction should get the same speed as other grabber, but is probably not exact anymore.
Since version 0.8 EAC includes a small wave editor that will have some neat functions that could be handy when handling extracted audio files.
Since version 0.6beta it is possible to remove glitches from extracted wave files.
If not, only the same result as 'Fast Extraction' is achieved (No error detection).

Logistical Networking is a new way of synthesizing networking and storage to create a communicative infrastructure with data persistence for distributed applications of all types.
To achieve this goal it combines all of the basic components for Logistical Networking Internet Backplane Protocol (IBP), the exNode, the Logistical Runtime System (LoRS), and the Logistical Backbone (L-Bone).
Following the example of the Unix inode, a single, generalized data structure called an external node, or exNode, has been implemented to aggregate byte arrays in IBP depots to form a pseudo- le (Figure 2).
