Rootbear, cable won't be enough. You'll need at least a 100mbit unmetered server, or around 3-5tb worth of dedicated bandwidth. The specs on the server won't have to be too robust as it doesn't take much to run a streaming application. You'll need pretty much php, mysql, apache, and whatever streaming software you choose. Figure at least a Pentium 3ghz w/1gb ram and 80gb hd, but the more CPU & memory, the merrier...if it gets popular. Linux preferred. Shoutcast is the most popular, but Icecast is also a favorite among the streaming radio groupies. I would suggest staying away from LayeredTech, and choosing a central US location for the server, like Texas or Missouri. West coast servers are going to buffer more for east coast residents, and vice versa. I'd suggest Alphared for a provider. Their bandwidth is great, they're in TX, and they've got great staff. Also, they allow IRC, which means their network is ddos protected (plus IRC offers a nice little nitch to get other people to play Continuum). The method I had lined up before was to get each zone's staff to find their own dj's. They know their players and dj's better than any of us. Also, the zone's would be held accountable for the actions of the dj's. So if some dj from say EG gets on and just plays the Chicken Dance while touting "EG ROCKS! EG ROCKS!" then yeah, EG would be held accountable for that. I still have the old ssradio site sitting around somewhere. Let me know if you want to use it. On a final note, I just got a raise, and I've wanted to do this for a while. Last time I tried to put it together it fell through. Apparently there have been some changes in the zones and they're all for doing this now, which is good. I can offer my $$ for a server if need be.
