No it doesn't, and I can attest to that from personal experience. That is what we call "anecdotal evidence" and it is unsupported by the science. Well, stick your head in the sand if you're more comfortable in that position, then, but I was on a 56K dialup, which in my area resulted in an average connection speed of ~48K and often slower, due to the limitations of the local telco network. The results for streaming audio left a lot to be desired. You've still said nothing about the other half dozen points I raised, so I'll assume you have no rebuttal. Ergo, we can conclude that Internet streams are no substitute for live, on-the-air broadcasts. JK Ergo? http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ergo 24 kb/s MP-3 sounds way better than AM radio. Cool. Let me know where I can get live 24K MP-3 broadcasts of major league baseball games, NFL football games, and NHL hockey games delivered to me for free to listen to while I'm sitting a surveillance at about midnight local time in a part of town where even the local cops don't like to get out of their cars unless they have about 15 other cops around for backup. JK I don't think they play baseball at Midnight. |
