What does the $5 setup fee on the free plan pay for?
It covers creating your station and keeps the free plan free of abuse. It is charged once; the free plan itself costs nothing.
How many listeners can I have?
Free carries 1,000 listeners at once, Premium 2,500 and Platinum 5,000. Premium and Platinum include 500,000 and 1.5 million listener hours a month.
What is the difference between 32, 128 and 320 kbps?
The bitrate is how much detail your audio keeps. 32 kbps suits talk radio; 128 kbps sounds good for music on any device; 320 kbps is the most a stream carries, for studio-grade sound. Platinum also runs 3 streams, so phones can take a lighter one.
Can I broadcast live and use AutoDJ?
Yes, on Premium and Platinum. AutoDJ plays your library and steps aside when a live DJ connects, then resumes when they disconnect.
Where do my listeners connect from?
On Platinum, from the nearest of our five cities: San Francisco, Miami, New York, Amsterdam, Bucharest. Your encoder can connect to the nearest one too. On Free and Premium, listeners and encoders connect to the server your station is hosted on.
Can I move my station here from another host?
Yes. Point your encoder at your new address, upload your music to AutoDJ, and update your player link. Our chat will walk you through it.
