You don't have to be _really_ good at sockets. I don't know how that
applies to your programming environment (what is it, can you please
remind?), but for me (C++, then Java) just the generalization of sockets
as streams worked pretty good - keeping in mind the reusability as well.
Besides that, the only difference between sockets and streams is
protocol-dependent information (such as hostname, port, mode (UDP/TCP),
etc.)
