    Who all has run their own personal online radio station, and which software package do/did you use?

    I have run several different ones over the years, and prefer to use SAM2.

    I haven't done the full live radio thing, but I've used Shoutcast or Icecast to do the streaming side.

    Thinking about maybe putting my radio station back online when we get the Google Fiber installed in the next month or two.

    I run a radio station (Neon Arcade '86) and ended up sticking with Icecast for streaming . Currently using foobar for the playlist manager.

    I like Icecast because the radio stream will show up as a streaming radio station in VLC player, Kodi, Clementine, and in online games like second life. I've never logged into second life, but I see listeners from there every now and again.

    The radio website is http://radio.asirta.com

    I've turned the streaming off, but will have it back on later this year... The website is still being updated weekly through the retro tucson youtube channel.

    Good luck with your station!

    Lith,

    I run my own shoutcast server. Never heard of foobar, will need to take a
    look at it.

    I run my own shoutcast server. Never heard of foobar, will need to take a look at it.

    I used a hacked copy of SAM2 once and really liked it, but I tried to get away from using unlicensed software as I got older to deleted it. I liked Live365 in its day. Not only did they provide storage but they dealt with all the licensing of the music too. There's a service out there similar but it's way more expensive. It's not financially feasable for a single home user to run a legitimate radio station without incuring some heavy costs.

    I used to get my fix by DJing on a Sunday night at the local privately owned radio station. I did a couple of hours called "The British Invasion" from 9-11pm then "The Last Hour" until midnight playing whatever. It was an oldies station but they changed to Americana and I don't do country type 'music'. :)

    Back around 2010, I was a big SL user, or "Citizen" as they are called. I knew a number of other Citizens from local sci-fi cons I attended and we created a space in SL called Dementia Radio, which was patterend after Dr. Demento's radio show; we'd play parodies and other oddball music. Each of us would take turns DJing and we'd pipe it through Shoutcast and SL.

    Those were fun times. I'd love to get back into both again sometime.
