I know there are a number of people on this list who have made reference to the fact that several individual links do not work when streaming audio. I would make the point that virtually none of the hundreds of links that I had set up will now work. This is a huge step backward. I would like to know if this is a problem that applies to this beta which is being worked on seriously so that it will be remedied in the final release? I hope this is the case. If, instead, it represents a change in the approach to streaming to which we will have to adjust, I would like to make it clear that this seems a significant degradation in functionality. I would almost propose going back to where we were rather than staying where we are.
In any case, Raoul and others, I for one would appreciate some clarification on the current state of streaming and what we can expect in the future.
