We need testers to listen to our first audio broadcast, served
via streaming mp3.

To listen to the broadcast, you must have an mp3 player that is
capable of listening to streaming mp3. The program mpg123 is very
easy to install and use, and is recommended for listening to Linux
Today broadcasts. First download and install your copy of
mpg123
. Once installed, begin listening with this command:

mpg123

We are looking for feedback! Please submit your comments using
the talkback feature below.

Keep an eye on the Linux Today homepage later today for an
official announcement about Linux Today’s latest new feature for
the Linux community.
