You are probably using Real Audio, which is not IP multicast.
It is (IMHO) a straight IP connection.

I'm listening to Virgin Radio, www.virginradio.co.uk at the moment.

One wonders when the strain will start to show, when more and more
users use Real Audio and Real Video streams (dare I mention the Clinton
tape?)
I for one (and I guess a lot of the people in this group do too!) that
ATM can then do the job it was intended to, and ride to the rescue.

Roll on some real world ATM apps.
