If you have ever wanted to do some broadcasting online, its essential you have a server to broadcast from. You could run one of these servers from your home broadband connection, but you upload speed will decide how many listeners you can broadcast to. For example on Virgin Media cable’s 10Mb package in the UK, while the download speed is 10mbps, the upload speed is actually only 512kbps, so that upload speed becomes the limiting factor of exactly how many listeners you can broadcast to. You can also use a server hosted in a datacentre to broadcast, this has the added benefit of not having the upload limits like your home connection does. I provide shoutcast servers for some of the worlds biggest names in internet radio, such as the ever wicked NSB Radio, Glitch FM and The Nuskoolbreaks.co.uk forums. If you are interested in getting server capacity from me, you can email me for a competitive quote.
