Streaming Audio: The FezGuys' Guide will introduce you to streaming audio and teach you how to work with the most popular formats, including RealMedia, Windows Media, QuickTime, and MP3. It begins by giving the reader a comprehensive overview of the most up-to-date streaming technologies available and the process of preparing audio for streaming. Then, it walks the reader through encoding into both live and on-demand streams in each format. Following an in-depth walk-through of serving the audio, Streaming Audio: The FezGuys' Guide offers several case studies that carefully break down how streaming audio is used in the real world: the internationally acclaimed rock guitarist Joe Satriani's web site, primarily using on-demand files with the occasional live stream for special events; the ultrahip drum 'n' bass, downtempo and ambient music Internet-only radio station SomaFM offering several live MP3 streams in multiple bi trates; and the FM station that started it all, KPIG-FM, terrestrial broadcast radio that streams it's programming online. Finally, the FezGuys illustrate a variety of advanced techniques, including optimizing, equalizing, creating playlists, batch encoding, dealing with legal issues, and more.

About the Author
Jon R. Luini has been in the trenches of streaming audio since the beginning. Involved in the first-ever live music concert broadcast (way back in 1994), Jon saw the Internet bubble inflate and explode (dodging numerous big money buyouts and attacks by hungry lawyers) as a founder of IUMA and MediaCast (the first Internet broadcast production company) and co-creator of Addicted To Noise (the first online music magazine). Jon runs an Internet and music consulting and technology company, Chime Interactive, plays in a band, and resides with his wife and expanding cat near Santa Cruz, California.
Allen E. Whitman likes anything that has a practical use. A lifetime musician and sometime journalist, Allen currently lives in Northern California's East Bay (pig-Latin for "Beast") region.
Jon and Allen have been providing Internet audio enlightenment as the FezGuys since 1996. Their writings have been featured in Tape Op, EQ Magazine, Gig Magazine, Webmonkey, Pro Sound News, Replication News, and Revolution. The FezGuys have been moderators, panelists, and interviewers at various industry events, including Streaming Media West, Webnoize Conference, Webzine, Macworld Expo, South By Southwest (SxSW) Interactive, North By North-west (NxNW), NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), and the SF Expo for the Musician.
