... Unlike clients such as Shout and IceDJ this permits the broadcast of live audio, rather than prerecorded mp3's. LiveIce was developed after the appearance of IceCast to provide the Real Time streaming functionality which makes it a viable solution for broadcasting.

... There is no question about the source of ionospheric plasma , since it is created from the ambient neutral atmosphere by ionization. However, the source of magnetospheric plasma is a much more complicated question: although it seems obvious that both solar wind and ionosphere feed it, the relative importance of these two sources is unclear. ... Protons (H + ) are the primary ions in solar wind and one of the major components in ionospheric outflows, and thus not good indicators of their source. ...
