Subject: [Icecast] Server question - if you had ...
If you had $3,000 for a new Icecast2 streaming server, what would you
buy?
What box, hard drives, LAN cards, etc.?
The project I am involved with is helping community groups in UK webcast
live public meetings and events. Democaster also archives Icecast
streams for on-demand streaming or download. We are focused on high
accessibility and low cost. See: http://dowire.org/wiki/Democaster
Because we archive webcasts, we might deploy two servers working
together. Your thoughts?
