I have used Skype before, and I recall it was decent. In fact, I just installed it and it appears to be working fine. kris.hartung. I'm not sure about the audio specs though. I can't tell from the site whether it will send a stereo signal, or just mono. Yes, this I hope to stream the festival to the web again. I am waiting for the venue to call me and verify that I can use their internet service. Kris ----- Original Message ----- > Awesome plan, this.
