Any replacement for the AS3 ByteArray where you can read raw binary data via any medium?

Maybe load a TXT file and access the characters byte-by-byte? Any ideas?

"The Socket class enables ActionScript code to make socket connections and to read and write raw binary data. It is similar to XMLSocket but does not dictate the format of the received or transmitted data. "
