Internet Broadcasting...and have a Blessed Sabbath
Thanks for writing in to Live365. I am very interested in talking to you about starting your own Internet Radio Station on the world's largest Internet Radio Network, Live365.com. In addition to customized internet radio services for your own website, your station can also be exposed to our listening network of over 4 million listeners a month.
If youd like to provide some specific information regarding your broadcast Id be glad to answer any questions you may have.
Are you planning on playing any copyrighted/licensed (music) audio on your station? Are you based in the U.S.?
If you have Licensing questions check out: http://www.live365.com/licenses/faq/abs/index.html
We have many affordable and dependent pre-recorded/live and on demand streaming options available. I've attached a brief flyer that outlines our services and attached both our non-royalty and royalty (music) based rate cards.
With our Spring Special your set up fee is ONLY $99 on the Small / Medium package and FREE SET UP (saving you $199) on the Large and Custom stations. (offer only good until 5 /30/06)

Our pro-broadcast packages allow you to:
· Customize your own player interface (with banners, branding, Flash animation etc) and launch your station from your own website, or other websites with just a link to the pop up radio interface.
- Allow listeners to experience up to a 128K stream which is double CD quality audio
- Expose your station to Live365's listening network of over 4 Million Listeners a month.
· Add links to the custom radio interface encouraging listeners to 'sign up', 'buy now', 'donate'
or further engage other content and ecommerce transactions. These are embedded links to your ecommerce URL.
· Add audio messages or ads to your station's content. Pro's can insert their own ads and sponsorship messages which allows for a direct ROI, growing advertising abilities quickly.
· Add advertisers banners or sponsor messages into the station interface for even more ad real estate.
· Send your station as a hyperlink-pop up to other web sites- providing a win/win for you and the website, and exponentially growing the audience without extra marketing dollars.
· Control all your content with simply a computer and a internet connection (with our included software) so
there is no need to bog your servers or IT group,
or buy special hardware, we are the end to end technology solution.
- Set up playlists of pre-recorded content and let them loop or program them with our scheduling software. You simply add advertisement in .mp3 and insert between songs or other audio content.
- Go 'Live' to your audience at any time, from anywhere with just a mic and a computer and an internet connection to your station using our Live software. Those live events are automatically recorded onto your computer's harddrive so after the live event has concluded simply upload the file to your playlists and you have archived your live event for more listeners to engage.
- Soon have the ability to launch your station directly from a listener's desktop with a branded desktop icon that links directly to your station- no browser searching required.
- Orchestrate a Live call-in show with a few pieces of additional hardware

Live365 is a great broadcasting website. For a monthly fee, they take care of the royalties, server space, and broadcast for you all over the world. It couldn't be easier. And compared to other broadcasting sites, Live365 costs the least to run a station. I really don't have any negatives about Live365. For 6 years, they've been great!
