How many people can connect?
When referring to a “maximum number of available connections”, we mean the maximum number of people who can tune in and listen to the streamed radio station.

Offer of service
You may broadcast 24 hours a day if you wish, or you could be more selective with the programming.
Of course, you can also apply for packages with a higher quality and / or number of connections.
The software that will be used is SHOUTcast, which is compatible with players such as WinAmp, RealOne, QuickTime and recent versions of Windows Media Player.
System Requirements
Since the broadcast is done remotely, that is, from anywhere (office, house, booth) to our server, you do not require a dedicated server or a collocation.
Requirements:
Online demonstration
