[microsound] a mo' better audio-cast?

[Michael North]

there's a cheap mac alternative from rogue amoeba called nicecast and  
there is an apple product based on quicktime with the name of  
broadcast or something, just did a quick search and couldn't find it  
under that name but it's free but didn't look trivial to set up when  
i looked at it
