Advantages: Your top tunes playing 24 hours a day on the Net and it's all FREE.

Disadvantages: Takes a bit of time to get your MP3's uploaded.

This wonderful award winning site allows you to set up a playlist of your favourite tunes and it plays them randomly for as long as you want. The site provides a tool called Easyloader, which uploads MP3’s from your computer to your own dedicated space. Once you have your tracks uploaded (there is no minimum) you can create you own personal profile so that whoever chooses to listen to your station can read a little about you. In order to hear your station to test if it's working you’ll need a player like Winamp and a soundcard. You can chose to broadcast at various speeds. The lowest speed is 27k but you have the choice to broadcast at 56k or T1/ISDN. Starting off it might be an idea to choose 27k to get the widest listenership. Of course the faster the speed the greater the sound quality.
You also have a number of choices when it comes to broadcast methods. The above describes the simplest approach called Easycast, but you can also use Livecast which is probably for the more dedicated. LIVE365 can be found at WWW.LIVE365.COM. When you get there why not look for a broadcaster called Indicator (note the o) and see what you think.
