Is there any free solution for a simple audio webcast/streaming setup? I'm part of an organization that will be holding meetings that apply to people in other states and possibly other countries, and they'd love to be able to set up a microphone and let those other people at least hear the content of the meeting. Video webcasting would actually be great too, but that might be beyond our capabilities. I think the webhosting I have is more than sufficient to handle the workload, but I don't know what software options are available and if any of them are free. Obviously iChat, Skype, AIM, are out of the question, because only iChat allows multiple connections, and even then it's not enough for what we want to do (plus, don't multiple connections only work with other iChat users?).
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Actually, I found what I needed, though I'll leave this in case anyone else didn't know. Skype offers SkypeCasts for free, group "chats" with up to 100 people, that even includes a virtual microphone that can be passed to anyone you want to let speak. It's what we'll be using for this purpose, and it looks really awesome.
