Heyes Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) I'll welcome suggestions for decent hosts providing capacity for thousands rather than hundreds of sim listeners. Edited January 13, 2016 by Heyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsoft Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 For thousands of simultaneous listeners I'd suggest acquiring a dedicated server. Do it only if you're sure that you really need that much listeners, otherwise you'll end up wasting money on a dedi. → RadioBOSS Radio Automation Software: http://www.djsoft.net → RADIOBOSS.FM Icecast/Shoutcast stream hosting.

The dedi route seems sensible as the likely cost of around $500 monthly for a decent/genuine unmetered 1Gbps server is ok. My reason for asking, is to see if there's a viable and simpler option which doesn't require server config and management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order a dedi server and install Centova, or any other stream control panel - it will do most of the hard work for you: you'll get Shoutcast/Icecast and easy way to configure everything. Depends on how well you know (or ready to learn) unix. Otherwise, just find a company that offers managed dedicated servers for streaming. → RadioBOSS Radio Automation Software: http://www.djsoft.net → RADIOBOSS.FM Icecast/Shoutcast stream hosting.
