How do I start my own internet radio station for free?

I want to have many listeners, so I have to broadcast the files to a server. I don’t want to pay a dime though. Is this possible? What do I need to get started.

There are several Linux based streaming applications… and a few Windows based ones. If you have Windows 2000 (or 2003) Server, then you can use Microsoft’s Media Services…

Do a quick Google on the net for Streaming Applications…

Where you’ve got to be careful is in your bandwidth utilization. Depending on the amount of listeners you have, you could be SENDING a lot of data over the net. Internet providers typiaclly SAY you’ve got unlimited bandwidth… but when you start to use a lot of it… things change.

Just be careful.
