1. A plugin that is able to play from a netcat TCP/IP stream won't care
where the stream comes from so the plugin is general purpose and source
system agnostic.  It is up to user to create the source in the case of
RPI if recording audio from an external source then some extra hardware
is needed. This RPI user has a Wolfson card which has both an analogue
and digital input.    This sort of plugin would have clean netcat
interface and so user will never have to fiddle with LMS plugins or
code.

2. LMS based solutions will always have latency.  If user doesn't want
latency - then don't use LMS. I have never offered low latency.
