Default TiBB Radio / Radiotion

So, I recall a thread being made last week about the possibility of (re)creating "TiBB Radio".

So, I made a radio. Of course, I didn't put TiBB into the domain or anything because making it a TiBB Radio was really only an idea, I wanted to make a radio nontheless. But, I would like it to involve TiBB. I would be prepared to link TiBB on the site, and what not. The domain is set up, so is the radio server. All we really need is you.

I'm looking for mixed genre DJs, having a Radio focusing on one main genre is boring. I know a few people are interested, and my only request regarding genres would be that if the music you intended to play was heavy, then I would prefer it if you DJed during the night, and by that I mean anytime after 9/10pm really. I think it makes more sense that way.

Only a few requirements to DJ, really. You need music. I'd like it if you had a microphone, but if you're too shy then don't worry about using a microphone, you can tell when someone is uncomfortable talking on mic, because they get all giggly and mumble a lot and it makes whoever is listening think "Gosh, just play the next song already".

The bigger your music database, the better. I think 800-1000+ songs is a fair minimum because you'll end up repeating a lot of songs and it gets a bit boring. The fun thing is about online Radio is that the music doesn't have to be mainstream and new, you can play pretty much anything.

Don't know how to broadcast? I don't mind teaching people how to use SAM, but if I'm honest, I can't be bothered with explaining how to use Winamp, I prefer SAM because it does most of the stuff for you. Winamp is a lot more manual, but there's plenty of guides online on how to use Winamp online. There is also VirtualDJ, but you have to do everything on there completely by yourself and I find it a bit tedious as you have to focus on it a lot. Experience isn't needed, everyone's gotta start off somewhere.

Internet connection is important too, ideally, I'd like you to be able to stream at 128 kb/s, but if that's too high then please nothing below 64 kb/s. The quality starts to get horrible and the delay HUGE. Goto www.speedtest.net and see if your internet is above 1 mb... If not, then I don't really think your internet can handle streaming.

If you want to simply host a talk show or something like that and know how to hook Skype up to SAM, that's fine too, just let me know that you want to only talk on air.

Sorry if that seems like a bit much, but it's not really.
- 1000+ songs and preferably a microphone, but not necessary.
- Need to download a broadcasting program.
- Need a fair internet connection.

If you're interested, reply to this thread, PM me or whatever.

Feel free to ask me anything else you might wanna know.
