Way back when I saw a system for streaming audio via DNS: by using TXT records with a TTL of a few seconds, and updating them in a ring buffer, and by stuffing each record with a fragment of Speex encoded audio, you could get quite viable 2kbps audio streaming. Plus, you ended up with totally automatic and really effective edge-of-network caching.
This could have been Dan Kaminsky's DNS Radio idea, which he mentions here: http://dankaminsky.com/2004/08/01/50/ http://dankaminsky.com/2004/08/01/50/
However, I haven't seen any actual code.
