Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hi all. I shall be trying my first internet broadcast tonight at around 9.00. If anybody would like to listen in then please do as I'd like to know if it all works......
The software i'll be using is winamp with peercast. Peercast needs to be downloaded if you'd like to listen -
www.peercast.org The link to me is in my signature.
I'll be playing some Curve, Dishwalla, Ambient stuff for sure - plus others. Dishwalla are a great band if you haven't heard them.
Hope to see you tonight

Hi christophe. Hit the link and press play, Peercast should then start up winamp. But make sure winamp is associated with OGG files first.
To test it on other stations then go to Peercast Yellow Pages and try a station there.
Good luck mate

Hmm, the downloaded WinAmp plugin doesn't work, it says it is corrupted. Tried downloading it three different ways as well.

@CellThree - can't help you with the corrupt file I'm afraid. I took Real Player off my pc cos it messed with other things so much.

Does not work for me either.
I use the stand-alone version but nothing works. I got your name in the list when I start Peercast, but when I hit PLAY nothing happens.
Mebbe it is the Firewall-thingy...
And I do not use WinAmp for that. Never again
