I'll admit that my argument doesn't stand up to severe testing - but I
think it is important that in general the receivers of the stream will
also want to store it (certainly my almost complete transition to
TiVo-ized TV viewing [what little I do] would support that theory :-).
Which is what I meant by "archive it somewhere", but I see now was far
from clear.
Cheers,
Ben.
