What are the underlying streaming protocols that power Rdio?

[James Butler]

Hiya!

I am doing a University presentation on a web application I made using Rdio's APIs and was wanting to talk a bit about what is going on under the hood. I had a look at the traffic in Wireshark and could see an HTTP GET request being made to your CDN?

Are you guys using MPEG-DASH, Apple HLS, or perhaps a proprietary Rdio streaming protocol? Any info you could provide on this topic would be really appreciated!

Cheers,

James Butler
