The data can certainly be compressed. I don't know if you've ever compared the
sizes of mp3 and wav files. Typical compressed audio, when using a lossy codec,
requires perhaps one tenth of the bandwidth that uncompressed audio requires,
without too much effect on the audio quality.

Changing module-rtp-send to support hostnames doesn't sound terribly
complicated.
