How do you know they're not? How do I know you're telling the truth?

DJC is most likely correct on this one. The first i ever noticed this was
when the original 5.1 came out. All of a sudden I couldn't receive more
than 1000 streams as many of us have reported. Perhaps Nullsoft/aol have
put a limit on the number of streams you can get, but again, that doesn't
seem to make sense since aol/Nullsoft has got to have bandwidth coming out
of its ears. So if you're also noticing this, go to the forums and tell
them, just like Peter did.
