That's pretty cool.  Keep pluggin away.  A few of us did a podcast a while ago.  It takes a long time and a little luck to gain any kind of traction.

yes my radio station cost total $16 USD per month plus $100USD one time fee for a line for my new basement computer. As for the PC well it's vary powerfull my radio station computer is actually 3 times more powerfull then my gaming PC but it's old. it was a gaming PC my uncle gave to me that he had lying around, my uncles has like 3 gaming PC's this one WAS his oldest. I got a listener from the UK yesterday,  and I am glad I am not the only one listening to my own stream,

This station plays alot of music that the mainstream radio station do not play currently or at least in the United States anyway, all the US radio stations play the same music hits over and over in like a 20 song playlist, not me, I have over 16,000 songs and without commeracials. According to what I read I do not need a ASCAP licence because according to what I read as long as I pay a streamIng service I think I don't need to pay royalitie checks, but I could be wrong, but they said I do not need an ASCAP billing account so we'll see how that goes.

I never plan on advertising like at all, but when I do get more listeners I do plan on maybe hosting shows and helping the composers that way.but I can't do anything untill I get off the ground floor with my broadcast  in terms of profit?  I'M REMAINING NON PROFIT

Im not even sure that Ive heard 16,000 songs in my whole life...

So I guess your an american? yea amercan radio sucks because they all play the same exact songs and over and over again daily, no variety, WELL NOT ME

You guys still listen to the radio? There's so many digital and streaming options now (in addition to having a music collection if that's your thing). I only listen to the radio if I'm in my car and I just don't feel like pulling out my phone or a CD.

Suprisingly I'm content with my SXM subscription. It doesn't play always only what I like, but between a dozen or so stations I can always find something I don't mind listening to. Faction Punk, Lithium, The Bridge, The Emo Project, etc. Good enough for a car ride.

My Dad has an appreciation for music I wish I had. He exposed me to so much different music throughout my life and I'm eternally grateful to him. I have 10,000 songs on my phone, it's like 60 GB worth of music. I bluetooth it in my car and all day at work too, sometimes I listen to podcasts though. I use the radio when I have to leave my dog at home. She listens to it but there's no way I could listen to Denver radio much. They play the same crap EVERY day. We do have a cool station called The Colorado Sound my Dad told me about. I've actually discovered some great music from it.

I'm currently in the process of advertising my free radio station on Facebook and I currently have "ZERO LISTENERS" All I get is FUCK OFF and MEME"s of shit comments from people, any suggestions to get more listeners? :-\

I tired turning off the stupid comments and Facebook turned them back on. ALL i get is MEME's of people insulting me, and complaining about my ad on their timelines I don't know what they are talking about, it's not supposing to be showing up in their timeline NO newsfeed yes.

My mom says they are stupid and don't know the difference between a timeline and their newsfeed, no, I am not posing on peoples timelines ads only go into newsfeed AND? I don't befriend strangers.

befriending strangers makes it a lot easier for you to get hacked on Facebook, ALL I get is MEME after fucking MEME >:(

Ad's are aimed at United States and people with music interests, not just random people, I've ran ads multiple times in the form of religious services in foreign countries and for 5 years without a single fucking MEME

This is correct.  People don't know the difference.

That said, no one, and I mean no one likes Ads on their Newsfeed.  In the precious little amount of time I actually spend looking at my feed I report and turn every single Ad I see off.

So at the end June my housemate was like "Hey, it's about time you found a place of your own" and with that I started going on the hunt for a house. I finally put the nail in the proverbial coffin on Friday and closed on my first house, a 1500 sq./ft. bi-level. Even though it's just me, the garage is packed like a sardine can with a bazillion tubs containing my game collection and a f-ton of boxes for my comics. I had my now ex-housemate, my cousin and a buddy from work helping move all that on Saturday to which I was told "There's a special place in hell for collectors like you."  ;D  :P

The upside is the housemate's wife had an aunt/uncle who were also moving and they had some older but well-maintained furniture they were parting with (for free) including a sectional couch, two recliners, and a still-in-plastic king size mattress set. That's a cool $2K in furniture I don't have to buy now.  ;)

Since the house doesn't have a true basement, it's a little smaller than where I've been staying now. My friend's house is approximately the same size at 1500 square feet but as I learned while house hunting, unfinished basements don't count toward that number so his house is actually much bigger than mine when counting the amount of basement space he has. Not the end of the world but I won't be displaying as much of my collection like I had hoped to.  :-\

At some point I'm going to have to rip all of the carpet out of the house as the previous owners were smokers. I would prefer to have that Pergo/paneled flooring or whatever it's called anyway but that's a down the road project behind a few other sweat equity things I'm going to have to tackle.  :P

I'll be honest in that I wasn't really looking forward to this whole ordeal but at least the house-hunting and dealings with banks/realtor processes are over. The mortgage payment and utilities won't break my budget but the thing I'm NOT looking forward to is maintaining the lawn/weeding.  :o That said, I'll deal with it rather than have to put up with a condo's HOA telling me I can't have certain colored curtains or charging me for maintenance fees for a tennis court/pool I'll never use.

Anywho...let the fun begin!  8)

Oh yeah...for anyone interested, Target got restocked on the Sanrio/Animal Crossing amiibo cards. No need to hunt them down on eBay or what not and pay obscene scalper/flipper prices.  ;)

Thanks!  ;D

I had a snafu with the electric where it was turned off on Tuesday. I just got a text message saying it's back on so I need to go check, turn everything off, etc. Because of that I've been staying where I have been for another week which means another week of rent owed.  :P

Also, the previous owners didn't do a repair right and it forced me to call the Water Works and have them shut off water to the house to fix a corroded pipe. The guy can't fix it till tomorrow morning so I can't stay there tonight either.  :-\
