[long post - readwith throaght wetting utility ]

I wasn't suggesting interfering with #nipp. i was only using it as an example of a channel that is popular for what it does, i.e anime serving.

I was suggesting though that there aught to be a home of sorts for music and it struck me that since rizon.fm plays music that it would make the ideal channel to mix both streaming and fileserving.

Why? because nearly all of he persons that are on this network seem intrested in some way in finding and downloading music or video. Those are the types of persons that makeup this network's captive audience, its what makes it different from chat based Dalnet for example, so if users can't find a little of what there looking for in any channel there on it may be difficult to keep them intrested.

Im assuming that like myself if i hear a dj playing a song i like, I also want to get it. Perhaps this idea would be limited to Dj's if the focus of the chan remaining mainly radio. Just an option to increase intrest in the idlers. The addition of web playlists that doubble as serving lists could generate intrest as well. Requesting would be very popular. Thers a plugin for this on icecast site.

you said something about promotion for other channels, I was actually thinking perhaps rizon.fm could talk with the others channels in allowing a bot that advertises the stream when users do a !list if the channel owners are opposed to an in channel ad. I mean if this is a network station perhaps like the Limitbot system there could be a Radio bot system.

[if the network is not getting into serving because of legality issues plz disregard what ive said thus far]
