How is LiveWire different from Streaming Audio?
The major difference between normal streaming audio over the internet and LiveWire is that LiveWire is low-delay. Most audio one a LiveWire network will time sensitive and will require extremely low-delay over a very fast network. This is in contrast to traditional streaming audio over the Internet where delays are expected and the material is not time sensitive. In addition, LiveWire audio is not compressed, where streaming audio is.
