Do it. Maybe I'd DJ.
Sounds like a good idea to me, I would use it everytime i'm on facepunch
A suggestion though, as well as playing music and such maybe there should be daily podcasts or something giving the latest facepunch/garrysmod/steam/world news
if this does start play [I]good[/I] music.
I love internet radios
Yes if you can get more than three people on air and put interesting stuff on it and not just music and not broadcast at midnight GMT.
How about we have more of a talk radio station than music; like have mod interviews, announcements, and FP speci...wait.......isn't all that called a podcast? Well....still......FP is too bitchy to have an internet radio station....we would kill each other over songs and shit. I can imagine X member playing a song that pisses off Y user to the end and so Y user goes to X user's home and at the least assaults them or maybe just pulls some revengeful shit (like egging their house) and at the most killing them. I know it will happen. I mean, c'mon, this is Facepunch, not the real world....
I might DJ, I have shoutcast and a huge music library. Awesome idea by the way, can't belive no-one thought of this before!
I was the best DJ when we did this last.
People just lost interest after a while.
There would need to be a schedule of daily segments to tune in for.
An autopilot playlist is fine and all, but only during certain hours of the day/night.
No, but we would like to have the podcast we were promised a month ago.
I can talk about nothing for two hours straight.
I'm serious.
no
I'd listen if it had good music. But I'd rather have that podcast we were promised.
We can just do music for most of the day, and stream the ventrilo server for another part of the day, talk to mods and stuff. Also, depending on how we do things, we can have guests in a designated Vent channel. Also, categorizing the stations (House, Rock, 80's, 90's, Talk) wouldn't be a bad idea either, for your "media to the masses" problem. That way bitching about a specific song goes un-noticed, as there ARE other options.
Me and a friend could go for 8 hours at a time, as long as the listeners wouldn't mind racism, bigotry, sexism, and the occaisionally hour or so stretch of us playing TF2 or other games.
I think this'd be a cool idea if executed properly. You'd probably have to find people you trust to run it while you're not there though...
NO, that's a terrible idea. Don't even bother.
It would be cool!
What would FP request anyway?
Letting me decide would wind up with the entire album, The Wall, being played without break.
Podcast. I wouldn't listen to the internet radio shit. I don't even listen to internet radio much anyways.
Would be cool if there was some talk time about one of the popular threads
I have SAM Broadcaster, I'll DJ.
I dunno if it would be possible to use Spotify for this?
Of course there would be the ads, but hell it's not THAT annoying.

Not a bad option.
When I get to wish a song I will wish for Hemispheres. :smug:

That isn't available to alot of countries.
We could just use ustream and stream a random diashow of FP related pics to it. And i think since ustream is distributing it, we might be able to stream copyrighted shit. It's their server anyway..
note to arrangers: dont let me dj whatever i say

hey can i dj
I couldn't wait...just started a testrun:
-schnip-
i'm not gonna be on for long.
Also, i do have quality equipment. So no mic breathing or weird noises for me. Just the automation software is free, but it works.
K, i'm off for now. Hope you enjoyed it.
A FP podcast, a FP videogames magazine and now a FP radio station, what's next? Am I going to see the FP logo all over the place when I go to the mall in 5 years?
Anyways, sure why not, I wouldn't mind a FP radio station.
