legmanct, you seem relatively knowledgeable. Any suggestions as to what they should use to pump out a subscription stream? (The archive deal is nothing a decent web programmer couldn't handle.)
There is no cheap secure off the shelf solution, but there are a number of providers out there such as Clipstream who can offer secure streaming.
The big issue there is they would need to use a special player to listen. So people listening on phones would need a special app to tune in.
Securing things up is not hard but will take some money, but not a lot of money.]
In checking around I did find one company (StreamGuys) that has been able to secure Icecast streams better. http://live.str3am.com:2500/
It can be done, but again its going to take SOME money to do it. So far all most all of Bubba's sites and RadioIO are using FREEWARE. If your in the business to make money you are going to need to spend some money.
