Re: protecting streaming mp3 files with asp.net?

MessageHere is the link to the Wimpy Player, it works off the shelf so to 
speak, so Flash programming or even PHP programming isn't required to use it. 
This might be the best solution.

    Does your server run PHP?

    I've done something similar at http://gutterstar.net/streaming , however, 
I've used both Flash and PHP separately. 

    For instance, for the online player, I'm using the Wimpy Player, which 
isn't mine, but a Flash mp3 streaming utility that uses PHP to run.

    For the default player streaming, I'm using a standard m3u playlist. The 
url for each of the audio files within the m3u playlist point to a particular 
PHP file, which then redirects the header to the proper audio file. 
    When someone tries to open the url manually though, it gives an error 
message.

    Hope this helps,

    Bryan

      Hi...

      I have to stream mp3 files from an asp.net 2.0 website. I am trying to 
figure out how you can let any visiter to the site play them but not download 
them. Most of the examples out there show how in flash, but is there another 
way?
