Audio Delivery to Multiple Platforms

[Brahmanathaswami]

Indeed is one of life's most mystifying conundrums that the LC strategy 
has allowed multi-media to take a back seat. With the world of online 
video and audio exploding, one would think, that if you wanted LiveCode 
to be a leading development platform, that making multi-media would be 
*the* top priority over anything else.

The number of "click thru's" to view media or listen to audio, certainly 
exceeds by huge orders of magnitude... the total of "click thru's" to 
*any* other process (business application, widgets, text processing, edu 
unicode etc...) So, why would you allow your development platform to lag 
5 years behind the rest of the world?

This is one of the huge mysteries of the universe to me.

I did get it working, but the play command is crashing in the app if I 
go too fast... I started another thread.
