Each listener receives their own copy of the stream, so a 128 kbps stream uses about 57.6 MB per listener per hour. With unmetered bandwidth you do not have to count those megabytes: your plan's listener slots and maximum bitrate are the limits that count. - 64 kbps: clear speech for talk radio and podcasts - 96 kbps: a good balance for music on mobile data - 128 kbps: the familiar quality of most music streams - Listener slots: people who can listen at the same moment Compare plans stream.example.com On air AutoDJ 128 kbps Listeners ## Live, automated or both ### Go live from your own software Connect your broadcasting software with the server address, port and password from your panel, and you are on air. - Works with common tools such as BUTT, Mixxx and SAM Broadcaster - Shoutcast and Icecast connections - Your live show plays instead of the AutoDJ while you broadcast stream.example.com On air AutoDJ 128 kbps Listeners ### Programming that runs itself Upload tracks, jingles and recorded shows to your AutoDJ storage and arrange them in playlists and schedules. - AutoDJ storage on every plan - Playlists and scheduled programming - Keeps the station on air between live shows ### Reach listeners wherever they are Share your stream in the places your audience already listens. - An HTTPS stream URL for websites and apps - A custom station page to share - An embed code for your own website - Works with media players that open stream URLs https://example.com **Connection is secure** Certificate is valid Issued to**example.com** TLS**1.3** HTTP/2 ยท HSTS ## Internet radio hosting features Every plan includes the same features.

You send your live audio or let the AutoDJ play your music, and the server delivers the stream to every listener's browser, app or media player. ### Shoutcast or Icecast: which should I choose? Both deliver your stream to listeners and work with most broadcasting software. Shoutcast is widely supported by radio directories, players and apps; Icecast is open source and also supports open formats such as Ogg Vorbis and Opus. If your encoder or a directory you want to join expects one of them, choose that one. ### What is AutoDJ? AutoDJ plays the music, jingles and recorded shows you upload, following your playlists and schedule, so your station stays on air when nobody is broadcasting live. The size of your AutoDJ storage depends on your plan. ### How many listeners can I have? Each plan includes a number of listener slots: the number of people who can listen at the same moment. The plan table lists the slots per plan; if your audience grows, move up a plan. ### What does the bitrate limit mean? The bitrate is your stream's audio quality. Each plan sets the maximum you can broadcast: lower bitrates suit speech, while 128 kbps is a common quality for music. Set your encoder to the plan's maximum or lower. ### Is the bandwidth really unmetered? Yes. We do not count the traffic your stream uses. The listener slots and the maximum bitrate of your plan set the limits instead. ### Can I put the player on my website? Yes. Use the embed code to add a player to your own website, or share your custom station page. Because the stream URL uses HTTPS, it plays on secure websites without mixed-content warnings. ### Which software can I broadcast with? Any encoder that supports Shoutcast or Icecast works, for example BUTT, Mixxx or SAM Broadcaster. Enter the server address, port and password shown in your panel and start your broadcast. ### Who is responsible for the content I broadcast? You are responsible for everything your station streams, including the music, shows and recordings you play. Our Acceptable Use Policy sets out what may and may not be streamed on our services, so please read it before you go on air. ### Can I get a refund on internet radio hosting? Yes. Internet radio hosting is covered by our refund policy: request cancellation within 30 days of the transaction and contact us for the refund. The first payment after a free trial is not refundable, and payments made in cryptocurrency are final. Our refund policy lists the full terms. ### Which billing cycles can I choose? Every plan lists the billing cycles it is offered with. Switch the cycle above the plans to compare prices; longer cycles show the saving against monthly billing when there is one. ### How do I pay? Choose one of the payment methods offered at checkout. Every invoice also stays available in the client area, where you can pay it online. ### Where do I manage my service after ordering? Your service appears in the client area as soon as it is set up. From there you can manage it, pay invoices and open support tickets. ## Questions before you order?
