A method and device are disclosed which receives packets streamed over a packet network, decodes the packets received to generate a decoded signal stream and filters the decoded signal stream to generate a pulse code modulated (PCM) signal stream. The PCM signal stream may be tailored to conform to the target destination transport requirements, including call channels established over circuit-switched networks, whether wired or wireless, without modifying the capabilities associated with the network infrastructure or the client phone.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for accepting streamed media packets sent from a content provider server and converting said streamed media packets to a pulse code modulated (PCM) signal stream, said method comprising the steps of: receiving, at a first interface, a request from a client device for a specified media content stored by said content provider server, said specified media content comprising at least one of live and archived media content; establishing, at said first interface and responsive to receipt of said request, a session with said content provider server for said requested media content, wherein said session is remotely controllable via said client device using control messages for controlling presentation of said requested media content; receiving, at said first interface, said streamed media packets corresponding to said specified media content, said streamed media packets being encoded media packets adapted to one of a plurality of encoded streaming media formats; transcoding, at said first interface, said streamed media packets received from said content provider server, to form a PCM signal stream corresponding to said specified media content; and launching, from said first interface, said PCM signal stream onto a network operable to convey said PCM signal stream to the client device making said request. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said launching step is performed over a circuit-switched line interface. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein said client device is a telephone. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said client device is a wireless device. 5. The method of claim 4 wherein said wireless device is a cellular phone. 6. The method of claim 1 wherein said network is a circuit-switched network. 7. The method of claim 6 wherein said circuit-switched network is a wired telephony network. 8. The method of claim 6 wherein said circuit-switched network is a wireless telephony network. 9. The method of claim 8 wherein said wireless telephony network is a cellular network. 10. The method of claim 9 wherein said cellular network is a CDMA network. 11. The method of claim 9 wherein said cellular network is a TDMA network. 12. The method of claim 9 wherein said cellular network is a GSM network. 13. The method of claim 1 wherein said specified media content is audio content. 14.
