real audio for free

["Ken VanTassell" <kenvt@geocities.com>]

There is a very low cost simple solution! The Real Audio Encoder is
free...you can make real audio files that are very small. The listener would
have to download the whole file, and then play it on their realplayer. It's
the streaming server that costs the big  bucks, it costs nothing to make and
post the files.
