Usenet Audio 136
Carel writes "Everybody who has done some streaming knows the downside: as soon as you're getting popular the costs are getting sky-high. While there have been some efforts in the P2P area these didn't have the impact they need. Enter Usenet Audio, a project that uses the existing, distributed and proven Usenet as its medium. Check the site for details and for the beta-versions of the software (which is available for Linux, OS X and MS platforms)."

There are far, far better ways to move music around. Streaming audio, P2P, even FTP would be far better choices. These guys must be mad to even consider this.
