Absolute Radio 'looking glass'

[dave-lew99]

So, i stumbled across this the other day, while looking for behind the scenes for Virgin/Absolute radio

http://lg.absoluteradio.co.uk

Now, personally i think it's a bit of a security risk to be allowing this kind of access to routers - even if it's just to view info.

Is this kind of thing quite common? It's confused me a bit as the site has been 'prettified' with a logo and snazzy name, it's not just some tech/test thing that's been left out by accident.

Oh right, i had no idea it was so common!

Virgin/Absolute always do seem to be quite technically involved - they're running multicast trials on some of their streams, that's one of the reasons i was looking for more info about their set up.
