thats ok, it might have been a little presumptous to think that there would be a huge amount of knowledge about the subject on a game dev forum. I guess Im in for a little more research than I had thought...

AFAIK you need a special server to stream to and setup costs can be about 500 USD with about 100 dollars a month, then you have to broadcast with an equilibrium between output quality and data stream limitations.

So therefore obviously if you are going to pay that much you would want a mailing list to notify of upcoming events, or you would have to have a few thousand in capitol to finance you before you "catch on"

I guess I was hoping someone would tell me about a site where I could make my own streaming server with linux or some other cheap way around it cool

Im always looking for an alternative..

I could be all wrong also, I really dont know anything about it.

edit:maybe you could answer these questions:

1)do you get a lot of listeners on that program you do?
2)How do you notify them of upcoming events?
3)Can people chat with you as they are lsitening via chat room?
4)what is the most interesting thing you like about it?
