 Firefox and Peercast...calling all developers! | Spread Firefox
Peercast lets you broadcast your own radio or TV station from your home computer without needing very much upstream bandwidth b/c each listener/viewer helps upload the stream too (think bittorrent, but not).
There have been talks here and there about making a Firefox extension that would allow people to listen to peercast stations easily from their browser, but development is slow.
In fact there is only one lone developer working on the project currently; this is why I got them slashdotted a couple weeks back, but it doesn't seem to have made that big a difference.

 the communiqué: Peercast Streams Video
Matt Gould sends word of a new service from Peercast to leverage edge-networks for streaming video: Video broadcasters can now use a simple URL modification to redirect requests to teh Peercast lease managers -- All viewers automatically become partial rebroadcasters of the stream to other viewers.
The Peercast infrastructure used for content distribution means that no matter how many people concurrently view the video stream, the source broadcaster sees no significant increase in the bandwidth required to supply this video stream.
The investment required made the rebroadcaster an easy target for broadcasting industry lawsuits, and it was quickly shut down.
