Maybe it's an idea to move the dir.xiph.org to dir.icecast.org or something similar. I can imagine it could be a bit infringing for xiph.org to show a list of non-ogg since it is fighting for open standards. To me, that would not be the case when you put the list on dir.icecast.org for instance. Icecast makes it possible to stream MP3 and AAC+ so maybe it makes more sense to have the yp listings availble on an Icecast web location. Regards, Frank Keijzers

So this isn't an answer at all. Supporting free formats is far, far more important to us than listing a few non-free streams. Mike
Anyone wanting their AAC/HE-AAC/aacPlus stream(s) listed on Tuner2, please send request(s) with relevant information to me directly. This is free and does not require an Orban Opticodec-PC Encoder. This will also help lighten the load for Xiph. -greg. ORBAN.
