    It sounds pretty stupid.
    But NF.net could have it's own online radio station.
    And we could take turns to be DJ's? I've tried it before.

    What kind of music would we play? Would it be random? Or should we schedule different types of music on different days? Where would we get the music/what kind of licenses would be involved? Would it take up any more cost on part of NF? - like for more server space or something?

    Overall, I think its a good idea :D

    It would cost a lot for the forum to have a radio like this...that's mainly because of the licensing. It would cause a lot of Copyright confusion. If you really wanted to, just listen to Pandora.com or Grooveshark.com while you're browsing.

    When NF.net is gonna sell T-Shirts with "I love SoC" and "Billy the Bad Mod just changed my name" or "Lighting is a very fast poster" then we might be able to get funds to make this.

    Until then, just AB a lot, sell a lot for USD and donate all to NF.

    Very much true...I do post hella fast XD


    Not that it's not a bad idea, I've seen this suggested on many forums. It's a great idea when you're waiting for the forum to wake-up, but it's kinda hard because of these legal issues.

    Anybody can host a stream...
    Winamp was created to do this.

    I'm even hosting a tv stream from time to time so guys at my job can watch NHL games while at work.

    I would, if I had money and they were awesome!
    I don't think it would be too hard to come up with some really cool designs, with graphic artists such as Mooie hanging around here :funky:

    Shouldn't be too difficult to set up. There are loads of Internet streaming software out there.
    I'll just have to find one that can be easily integrated into a flash player of some sorts.

    O.O If you guys seriously want them we could get them printed up I guess...TBH personally I wouldn't buy one, but that's just me. I never wear t-shirts anyways.
