Audio apps include all clients on the 'net that allow you to listen to
and/or create sound bits. Standard audio apps allow you to work
with WAV, AU and similar sound formats and include WHAM and
WPlany. In addition to these clients, a new type of audio app has
recently emerged -- clients that allow you to download and run
audio clips in real-time. Real Audio was the first app of this genre,
but recently apps like VocalTec's Internet Wave and TrueSpeech
have also emerged. These apps mark a very important transition for
audio on the net -- gone are the days of waiting an eternity before
finally getting to listen to a 30-second sound clip. The advantages
of this new technology can already be found at many web sites,
including sound clips at ESPNet, news broadcasts from ABC and
NBC, songs from new groups, and more. It will be interesting to
watch this technology evolve, especially as the speed and sound
quality improve. Finally, we'll take a brief look at some of the new
speech recognition programs. - Forrest Stroud
