While Internet streaming audio technologies have been in use for several years, what made this event unique was the audience's experience of uninterrupted, intermediate quality, multichannel audio (AC-3). In order to achieve this result, a custom system was developed employing both TCP and UDP protocols, and providing its own buffering and retransmission algorithms. The motivation for this approach is explored, and experiments justifying the decisions made are explained. = Appeared in Journal of the Audio Engineering Society,July-August, 2000. 2 1 Introduction The growth of the Internet has not only reshaped our work lives, but, in recent years, has also begun to affect and redefine various areas of entertainment, in particular, that of music. Until the last decade, the idea of downloading music to one's home, at great convenienc...
