System and method for capturing and distributing a live audio stream of a live event in real-time

A non-transitory computer-readable medium for capturing and distributing a live audio stream of a live event in real-time to a plurality of mobile computing devices, the computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions for:

• receiving, in real-time, the live audio stream via at least one audio input device;
• via at least one processing device:
• upon receipt of the live audio stream at the at least one audio input device,
• generating, in real-time, a plurality of discrete audio data packets from the live audio stream;
• and
• as each discrete audio data packet is generated, transmitting that respective discrete audio data packet over a first network for receipt by the plurality of mobile computing devices,
• wherein the transmitting comprises, for each one of the plurality of discrete audio data packets, transmitting a copy of the discrete audio data packet for receipt by each one of the plurality of mobile computing devices prior to transmitting another one of the plurality of discrete audio data packets to any of the plurality of mobile computing devices.
