Streaming .wav file over network

Question

Hi ,
I am trying to stream a .wav file over the network using datagram sockets and packets. When it gets to the other end it is just noise but you cannot make out what the music is.
Any ideas would be most appreciated!
code below
byte[] data;
int bytesAvailable;
          String     strFilename = "test.wav";
          File     soundFile = new File(strFilename);
          AudioInputStream     audioInputStream = null;
          try
               audioInputStream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile);
          catch (Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
               System.exit(1);
while (thread != null) {
          int     nBytesRead = 0;
          byte[]     abData = new byte[EXTERNAL_BUFFER_SIZE];
          while (nBytesRead != -1)
               try
                    nBytesRead = audioInputStream.read(abData, 0, abData.length);
               catch (IOException e)
                    e.printStackTrace();
               if (nBytesRead >= 0)
try {
connection.send(new DatagramPacket(abData,1000));
}catch(Exception exec) {
System.out.println("Record: Exception sending packet:\n"+exec.getMessage());
try {
thread.sleep(50);
}catch(InterruptedException exec) {}
}

Streaming? looks like your dumping the whole file into a datagram packet. How are you receiving it on the other end?
