Dj Tech Tools needs a radio station

[plusplus]

Isn't there a website that offers to broadcast radio streams?
Or Ean maybe can install something on the DJTT server ... dunno ...

If there is a portla like Soundcloud for Streams we should definitely check it out,
and test it properly with a few people.

The idea is really great!

Found these links so far:

Good idea, just hard to get a following for it, but I'm sure its do-able. Everyone here just needs to promote the shiet outa it.

Yeah, thats gonna be hard in the beginning. But if it hits, it is probably going to work by itself.

Something else we should think about is getting some hours on another radiostation, like every thursday 2 hours, or something.

this is a dope idea. i'm all for it.

yeah good idea i am in

Just a random thought, we could actually do a contest here on the forum, which user is going to spin on the radio show.
So we would have the best guys on the show!!

Edit: Not just once of course, for every show or something, so we get some rotation into it!

there's another one called shoutcast, very popular.

problem with setting it up on the TT server is that, if we wanted to host a decent stream (at least 128kbps), broadcasting constantly would really slow the site down, even if it was just us who were connecting. it'd take an investment to bump up the sites bandwidth if we wanted to get this going, which leads to ads, lame promotions, etc. however, it's very possible to set up a protocol through the server, provided this site has a dedicated IP and accessibility to add server applications.

Yeah a seperate Server or a service would probably be a lot better.
That we're just random thoughts i had without thinking them through
Thanks for doing that.

+1 on the Radio

I personally wouldn't mind a couple ads. And I don't think we'd need a contest to decide who DJs. There are many hours in the week. But maybe for the more desirable slots...

The best idea though is using an external host for the radio station.
