Choose Your Streaming Bit Rate
The higher the bitrate, the better quality of sound your listeners
will enjoy.
24k / 32k - Generally a dial up listener can listen to a stream
that broadcasts between 8kbs and 32kbs without experiencing buffering
depending on the individual listeners connection.
56k / 64k / 96k / 128k - Broadband listeners can listen to audio
streams at a much higher bitrate. The highest bitrate recommended to
stream music to broadband listeners is 128kbs. Why? Music CD's are
recorded at 128kbs. Any streaming above this bitrate is just a waste
of your bandwidth. Of course you can choose any rate between 8kbs and
128kbs to stream to broadband.

How will my people see my station .
When you start broadcasting you will be listed on the
ShoutCast
website. Thousands of listeners in search of music. Your
station will be listed by gender of your stream (Rock, Jazz, Country.
etc.)
I want to have two streams, one at 64k and one at 128k.
When you go to our
order page,
you can select the bit rate and how many slots. It will allow
you to order different combinations of bitrates. Don't forget
about our value plans to save money.
What software do I need to broadcast. You can
choose from several different ones:
SAM2/SAM3/SAM4
by Spacial Audio, OTS,
WinAmp and others
that will support the ShoutCast DNAs.
Will my Shoutcast Server have a static IP address.
Yes. Each stream you sign up for will have it's own unique
static IP address and port number.
What do the different speeds sound like? Have a listen:
24k (talk radio)
48k (Low Music Quality)
