Hey all,

I am bulding a site for a record label. They want to be able to stream and download music off their site.  
They dont want to be able to do it through flash, just to have two buttons: one which loads streams and one which downloads the mp3.

I’ve been told that you need a different file format to stream… (m3u?)

Does anyone know what formats the files need to be?  
Or how exactly to do this?

thanks in advance
