i'm using pandora, have last.fm installed and read a /root/Info/Sys/Sound/Last.fm_Music_Service.pdf file tho i don't listen to music as much as i once did, i've always wanted to do a community radio project (LPFM/X.25). building a Linux_Multimedia_Studio, scrounging up cheap iron (h/w, D->A cards, xmitter(s) ect... But i was thinking of using Icecast, http://www.icecast.org/ as i really respect the Xiph.Org Foundation and it appears very powerful. Could libre.fm be used on top of or in conjunction with that (do you think?) Rion > > -Tom >
