and Audio over the Internet
All
of the plug-ins below can be downloaded free
Vdo Live Vdo Net simultaneously broadcasts
streaming audio and video over the internet by use of their
decoder. The video can be viewed with your browser or as a
floating window. Over a 28.8 connection, the images are good,
but can be slightly choppy at times and audio usually sounds
great. VdoNet has a guide that shows which programs are
available to viewers. Vdo Net sometimes broadcasts live space
shuttle missions as well as current newsclips of the day.
Xing
Streamworks Xing can deliver audio or video
(or both at the same time). Over a 28.8K modem, the image
quality is not as good as Vdo Net, but the sound is pretty
good. There is a listing of sites offering content for Xing
Streamworks at Xing's website.
Vivo Vivo delivers video at a good rate.

offering content in real time for this product, most notably CNN
interactive.
