Hi We are looking for a product that applies to this specs. 1) We need to allow different users / departments access to upload Audio and Video files for streaming 2) We need to comply with MPEG4 and MP3. And that playing does not require a specific player (we can accept Windows Media Player, QuickTime, iTunes, Winamp) 3) We want users to be able to organise their material - and that m3u lists and RSS (podcast/Vodcast) can be created per 'playlist' 4) We would like to install the server on a Mac OS X server Can Icast do all this, maybe by adding some 3rd part apps or something?

In my opinion Icecast is not the ideal solution in this situation. Icecast is designed towards live-streaming. Static file delivery was never its strong side. (Apache is much better at that anyway) I think we had a similar discussion earlier and someone recommended jinzora. You might want to check that out. Cheers Thomas
