[Kzyxtalk] Many can't stream KMEC?

[Cindy Swan]

Thanks for the bandwidth details, Dan.

BTW, I noticed kmec has already posted 
Norman's ACCESS program
that was on this morning . . .
(a wonderful chat w/Crispin Hollingshead,
“Optimistic Catastrophist”, 
re: New Ways to solve Old Problems . . .)

It took me awhile to find it.
—Then, there it was, plain as day:
a long black box w/a “play” button,
right under the show announcement heading
on the kmec website. <www.kmecradio.org>

I suspect they posted it at lower bandwidth,
per your suggestion
as it replayed w/o a single “buffer” stop.

Definitely worth a listen ;)
Thanks, guys, for your timely insight.

Most stations used to carry 2 streams, one being low-bandwidth at 16kb or 24kb. Either of these low bandwidth streaming rates are fine for talk shows, marginal but adequate for music. Many of us rural beings do not have satellite.
