There's no free implementation that I'm aware of.  Thompson may be able
to
sell you something, but I've no idea how much it will cost.  Frankly,
I'd
move to Ogg Vorbis, it's supported by more players anyway.

Geoff.

 From a quality standpoint, I'd love to, but from a 'supporting paid 
users of a stream with minimal effort' standpoint, the amount of effort 
necessary to get the right player or codec in the hands of casual 
non-techie computer users makes it not worth it.
