Description of the Service
The service makes use of compressed digital audio
to record any message or item of headline news that is topical.
The audio is converted into a special streaming format for used by the Vosaic (Java) player.
The audio messages are given a title that users select from a play-list. The titles are listed in reverse date order (newest at top of list).
Users "play" the messages from their browser simply by clicking on them. They are only aware that the Vosaic player is being used because a Vosaic icon is displayed. Most Personal Computers are equiped with a sound board and speakers.
Recording the Digital Audio Messages
Usually, we will record the audio message for you.
You just supply the message in text form, either:
Let us know exactly what you want recorded, including any special emphasis.
Alternatively, if you know how, you can record your own digital audio messages and send them on floppy disk or in an e-mail.
