If you have "reuseFirstSource" set to True, then yes, the input 
source class will be created/destroyed several times.  However, it 
will be *read from* only once at a time - no matter how many clients 
have simultaneously requested playing the stream.

Therefore, you need to modify your input class so that it can be 
created/destroyed several times, without affecting the actual 
underlying data source
