The only other solution Butters' and myself would have is to have someone with plenty of bandwidth to relay our broadcast as we do not have the bandwidth need to host anymore than maybe 3-4 people at one time, and when I check the status, there are nights that we manage to go up to ten or more simultaneous listeners. Live365 provide us for a measly 14.95 a month to relay our broadcast and have more people listen in. Can you provide us the same service for the same price?...
I didn't think so.
You don't want the stinking ads, then you can get a premium account, or other ways to avoid them are to configure Live365 to use a different player like Winamp. Once the broadcast starts in Winamp, WMA, iTunes, whatever, you can close the main Live365 and go on about your pop-up free business, or use a pop-up blocker. Don't want to be spammed? The click the checkbox that says "Please do not give out my e-mail address" when you register.
The only e-mails I received from Live365.com are the billing statements. I don't not received any other junk from them as I did checked that nice little box.
As for the rest of the junk you get, they already get your e-mail address off of any web page that's published it (do a Google search on it and you'll be surprised), any newsgroup you've posted to, via attacks on your mail server (where they send millions of bogus e-mail address requests to a server 'till the find a legitimate one), or any of the other service you (or a "friend"; ever heard of scams like eCrush.com where they ask you to enter in the e-mail addresses of 5 of your friends?) may have signed up for.
But, hey, don't take my word for it. Just continue being a dickhead and I'm sure you'll go pretty damn far in life.

OK, now that's not very nice.
