    Programs for web radio relaying?

    Maybe I just suck at searching lately, but I can't seem to find a program for my specific purpose. I want to take an ogg stream, convert to mp3 on the fly, and restream that. I was going to use Icecast + Ices but it looks like that's only good for ogg->ogg and mp3->ogg.

    Anyway, if anyone knows how to do this, I'd appreciate a nudge in the right direction. I can figure the rest out on my own. I'm running linux.

    Hmm... is that even legal?
    It's an honest question really. Don't take me wrong. But can you relay a radio broadcast after changing its source format? I suggest you contacted the source before doing this.

    It's for kohina.com, those guys are pretty carefree. I am going to get permission first though. Anyway, VLC to the rescue:

    Code:
    vlc -vvv http://relay.radio.ethz.ch/kohina.ogg --sout '#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=48}:standard{access=http,mux=mpeg1,dst=}'

    VLC owns. Everything else is just scenery.
