Getting "Off The Hook" on the net, the new WBAI phone system allows callers to be put on hold, Bernie S. update, overview of the Mitnick books, Don Delaney statements, NYNEX employee regulations, PSI update, the WBAI web page, monitoring through payphones. (The initial method of getting the show onto the net was rather complex - the shows were first recorded as .wav files, then converted to .au format, and finally compressed into a gsm file. The end user had to have the appropriate gsm player on their home system and real time streaming wasn't possible. It would be more than a year before the show would be available on RealAudio, which was far easier to use and had a better sound with no increase in file size.)
