SHOUTcast or Icecast
We currently provide SHOUTcast v1.9x and icecast v 2.4x based streams.
Our Second Life billing team will send out a reminder (as a notecard) 4-5 days before the expiry of monthly streams and again as you enter the final 24 hours of your rental. If you no longer require the stream you need take no further action as it will simply expire.
