I don't think there's any reason one couldn't write externs to make point-to-point signal connections over a networ, using the subset of threads that Windows supports. I think that whether to use point-to-point or broadcast is a separate question. Also, most receivers of "streams" just put out garbage when the signal degrades; a "netreceive~" object could be coded to do the same if desired.
well, i'm not familiar with windows programming at all ...
i'm trying to set up a global soundfiler thread and until now i was using signals to wake up this thread ... so this probably won't work on windows systems ... ... but first of all it has to become stable
cheers....
