I know I happily streamed .au music from the sounds.sdsu.edu FTP server into /dev/audio (late at night, of course) in that era. Since it was an FTP server, I suppose there was a rough sort of DRM (maximum connections allowed) and metadata (directories and filenames describing the artist and song name). Even though I had seen a good deal of MBONE broadcasts, it was quite a novelty to hear a song streamed on demand.
