Posted November 29, 2008 This isn't so much for the actual game but I thought i'd be quite good if wurm had it's own internet radio station. I would like it because I enjoy listening to music when I play and chat and also, game updates could be read out for lazy people like myself who can't be bothered What do you think?

Posted November 29, 2008 Meh... Podcasts could be alright but live is better It's very easy to set up... I used to have my own lol.. only friends and family etc used it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 An Internet Radio requires a license, which can cost up to $200, depending on your maximum slots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 Mmm.. Maybe some sort of cheaper alternative? I don't know, I don't do radios in games and whatever; but maybe there's some other way? Or you could just tune into a radio station while on wurm at the same time ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 29, 2008 I don't think they cost money do they Xallo? All you need is hosting from a website.. which wurm has. And Huck, I would.. But I don't have a, how can I put this, "radio voice" : I'd be fine mixing music but then it would defeat the purpose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 29, 2008 Just use your Winamp, Media player, etc. to play your music while you game. Not that I think this suggestion is a bad idea, it's just something I know I'd never use. Too many people have various different tastes in music. I know i'd rather set up a playlist of my music, versus listen to an online radio station that might play a song I like and then play 10 that I don't like.

Posted November 29, 2008 Good point As_I_Decay. What I had hoped is that it'd be like a news centre aswell... Where they can read out updates etc, maybe get Rolf to talk about future plans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 alot of people who use ventrillo make a radio station through that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 Ah yeah. I thought of that earlier but I wasn't sure if it was possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 Just use ventrilo, im sure you can host one for free or just rent a server for 2 months, its cheap around january. You can talk and broadcast musuic, the music sounds like it is coming right out of your headphones to other people if you adjust the volume right. try this on for size http://www.typefrag.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 Looks promising remember I'm only suggesting it though lol : Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 29, 2008 Aden, just do 1 hour fo non stop music. I'd listen, probably. Oh and I've had a look; it'd cost about $200 to set up using the first host I looked at and it would cost $166 a month for normal hours, assuing that we'd be broadcasting 15 hours a day... Well, I'm not paying for it... EDIT II Whereas another cost $25.95/month for their best plan Now, where are the hidden fees, hmmm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 2, 2008 Since I am unsure on how legal it is, I dont do it now. :-\ That's a shame, used to like listening to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
