Wish you luck on Live365. I was a part of the mass exodus late last
year when a lot of their standards changed and, even though they
claimed that support would be there for non-electronic listing of
playlists to them (to ensure we were following the rules), that
supposed service wasn't offered.

I had been doing a full hour set with annoucements, plugs (for both my
show and for Live365 preferred listening package), music, and, at
least a two minute sweep at the top for Live365 to add their own ID
and plugs.

As of November last that option changed with their new standards of
having to electronically list every piece of music or announcement
with their upload service. Basically, it meant they can thrust their
advertisements between every song and every annoucement and I have no
control of the creativity in song blending (segues and cross-overs,
etc) at all. I wasn't giving them my money for my radio production
hobby to have them cancel the art of radio (song-smithing and building
of music flow) just so they could spot in more advertisements.

They emailed me back and told me another email where I could contact
for manual upload of playlist so I could continue my style of show.
After another month of their taking my money, and, not uploading my
show, they informed me that this service (where I could email a manual
playlist upload for my show) didn't exist. I quit Live365 at that
time...having lost three months of payments to them while trying to
work out the matters by their policy and offering standards that would
allow me to keep a full radio show and not just playing songs afloat.

They emailed me back, let me know I wasn't the only airhost that had
pulled out for this reason, apologized heavily, and, begged to get me
back. Until those standards change, I won't be back.

Just wish there was another service that wouldn't cost me a baseline
of 2K a year in order to actually boot up a well produced radio show
with commercially available music. All about that ASCAP/BMI stuff,
for the most part, when it comes to financing the show. "Sigh".

Sorry for the rant. Been sitting on it about a year and realized I
had to let it go.
