Hi,
I want to broadcast my mixes sometimes, but I have slow connection (64kbps/64kbps). I want
to broadcast with 32kbps. Do you know about some free shoutcast hosting ? Thanks.

Hi
Yeah shoutcast can host your stream for free. But that's not going to fix your internet speed problem. Unless you have cable internet, which has upload and download seperated, not 2 in 1, broadcasting at 32 kbps with a 64 kbps connection means that when 2 listeners will tune in, 100% of your internet connection will be used. Plus, you need a good bandwith transfer limit to be able to broadcast.
Hope this helps.

Well, yeah, I know that. I'm not a newbie. :) I have my shoutcast server system running on Linux. I just wanted to know If there is some possibility to find any free shoutcast server to broudcast 32kbps for more than 2 listeners (I have separated speeds: 64 for download and another 64 for upload). But thanks anyway.
