+Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports Ogg
+streaming including the vorbis and theora codecs. Also icecast can
+handle other streams like MP3/AAC/NSV.
+It can be used to create an Internet radio station or a privately
+running jukebox and many things in between. It is very versatile in
+that new formats can be added relatively easily and supports open
+standards for communication and interaction.
+
+Icecast has an optional requirement of speex.
