This data structure represents the state of a single media stream 
(e.g., audio or video) within a single session requested by a remote 
client.

Notice how the "streamToken" variable is assigned by the call to 
"getStreamParameters()" (which is called to handle the RTSP "SETUP" 
command), and notice how later this same "streamToken" variable is 
used when performing operations on the stream (e.g., starting it, or 
pausing it).
