Hey Joe --<BR>
<BR>
I'm behind in reading posts (what else is new) so don't know if anyone else has answered with this yet or not...<BR>
<BR>
Back when I was an engineer at XM Radio in DC we worked with this and used ShoutCAST as the platform. We used it on XP builds on IBM desktops for doing remote broadcasting...the most notable was the ISDN back-up we provided for Live Earth on 7/7/07 in LA. That became one of my pet projects and was a great solution for streaming content to the web. It takes little time to set-up and you can have a stream going in no time at all. Best of all it runs on Linux!<BR>

<BR>
I just shipped an IBM SFF to a buddy in Ellicott City, MD who wants to do the same thing. That box is dual-booting XP and 9.10...XP since that's what he's used to and Ubuntu as that's what he's moving to full-time. Ubuntu includes DJ software that directly integrates and supports Icecasting (or so they say -- haven't tried it yet myself.)<BR>
<BR>
I too am in the process of building a webcast format and am laying the ground-work for that now. Much to do and I'm far-off from a launch date but I do have the hardware and facilities. Need to get the licensing and record service and I'll be much further down the garden path!<BR>
<BR>
If you want a distro that really caters to media production you should take a look at 64 STUDIO. It's Debian based and packed with tools...also has a live build if you want to test drive.<BR>

<BR>
Also check-out Ubuntu Studio. I have not used it and know nothing of it but can guess...<BR>
