 The other day I was trying to stream audio via a not-so-awesome wifi link
 to another system using PulseAudio. The available bandwidth was so low,
 the audio stuttered, and it just wasn't a good experience. It would be
 really nice to have network audio compression (lossless, I'd bet) used
 automatically. Even in the case where plenty of bandwidth is available,
 it's still nice to not use all of it, as all that bandwidth use slows down
 other apps (like my online video streaming that has the audio I'm
 streaming to another system). Thanks for all the great work!
