Awww. My language experiments might've steered me into trouble. :(
Sorry if it sounded a little too harsh; I didn't mean to hurt anybody's feelings.

Now on to the subject.
  1. Don't get too much faith in power of "Please do not give out my e-mail address". I check it on each and every site I visit, and still my hotmail account gets more and more spam each day (I intended it to be spam-account though... but still). And that account isn't mentioned on any webpage or newsgroup, so it couldn't be discovered by a spambot.

  2. And they CHARGE you for the right to show their banners/popups/send spam to your listeners?!? Now THAT's an ultimate impudence!

  3. For $75 (i.e. add just extra $25 to their usual DSL package), you can get Yahoo DSL with 1mbps out / 2mbps in (that's what we've got at our office). Should be enough for 16 listeners at least.

  4. There's a freeware broadcasting tool (can't recall the name right now; you can easily find it on Google) that works just like any p2p network: you stream out just about 3 streams; the rest of the clients get those streams re-broadcasted by other clients. Thus, _your_ bandwidth stops playing any important role; the more people listen to you, the higher virtual bandwidth you get.

Quote of the day:
Eager people seek opportunities; passive people seek excuses.
