That agrees with my experience, too. One of the concomitant frustrations of these experiments is not atually knowing whether the loss of signal is due to the originating server or something along the way between there and here! It stopped working altogether towards the end of the concert. Continually pressing CTL-F5 and then attmepting to reconnect is not fun! I suspect that most of the problems last night were at the originating end, though there were cases when there were beats missing as the stream caught up, which seemed more likely to be delays in the Internet.
