I have been thinking about a really simple system where the client sends
either:
a) The filename (url?), preferred for local files - cacheable
b) The file contents in any format but raw, formats contains decoding info
using a pipe/socket to the server.
c) Program generated audio with a header, followed by data, pauses OK.
using a socket/pipe/... to the server.
[The server needs to decode the header, load the decoder pluggin, and go]
Doable? Better worse than current approaches?
