That's interesting, because I searched on what came to mind for me - 
"multicast music", and you had the first, second and fifth through 
ninth hits. Of course, other searches also revealed interesting 
stuff, they just didn't have your page ;) BTW, have you seen the 
gadgets at www.uclinux.net? That came up on a search for "multicast 
mp3"

It seems like it would be easy to build a session directory app that 
would make use of a single well-known SSM source, with which other 
SSM (or ASM) sources could register. Hmm, Google comes in handy again:

and the couple of dozen messages following. The discussion seems 
pretty thorough, and I see some familiar faces represented ;)
