It took me many hours to learn about the options for setting up your own radio station. But now you can learn to set up your own station, in barely an hour.
The 3 Top Choices For low cost Online Radio Station
- My Yahoo Radio Station
- Yahoo Launch Cast - Free to create a radio station. A yahoo ID is required. This is 100% commercial radio, and they play lots of ads but they are generally very good. You rate songs, artists, albums and genres. The higher you rate the more yahoo plays it. You can also ban particular songs, albums, artists, and genres. Occassionally they play recommended songs that are absolutely horrible but you are allowed to skip a few songs.
If you love the radio station you can upgrade for about $5 a month and then you can create multiple stations on the same yahoo id. - My Pandora Radio Station
- Pandora is another free personal radio station. You pick the artists and the songs you like and then they create a radio station around that particular song or artist. You can also rate each song as either like it or don't like.
Pandora is fantastic at hard to find genres but is very bad at adding any crossover hits. For example, if you like baby got back by sir mix alot then pandora will play similar songs in that genre. So I suggest that you just play whole genres that you like.
Another great thing about Pandora is that you can create multiple stations on one account. - Live 365
- If you have $10 a month you can get a live 365 station. Here you upload your own songs, create the exact playlists, and schedules. Under some programs you can also broadcast live.
There are some great stations and I recommend you browse even if you aren't going to set up your own.
