Another consideration might be Fluendo's free streaming server.  It's
supposed to be released in early October and looks very promising.  It's
GPL and based on GStreamer.  There is an interesting article on Fluendo at
http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=8218.  They have a webpage with a
java applet that acts a ogg vorbis/Theora player.  Works pretty good.  I
just tried it again and found out that it's now been mentioned on
slashdot.  Worth considering, at least.
