with tight community moderation, a rating system, and the ability to stream without having to be in the chat room, i could see this being an internet radio alternative. are there room operators with mod privileges to ban trolls who queue up inappropriate stuff, or people who consistently play glitchy mp3s? I have zero interest in chatting on the internet, but wouldn't mind bookmarking a few consistently good rooms to listen to as background music or whatever.

It's been fine with me about bit rate - I've uploaded plenty of 320s - but you can't upload anything over 20mb.
― mike t-diva, Sunday, 3 July 2011 09:03 (fourteen years ago)
Quite a few occurrences last night of songs stopping half the way through, though. Thinking there might be a server glitch with vbr or something presently. They're generally good about fixing problems quickly once they know about them.

Many listeners at the moment, but there should be more uploaders too.
― Tuomas, Monday, 4 July 2011 13:51 (fourteen years ago)
Whenever I see at least an hour's worth of queue ahead of me (which is always) I say fuckit, y'all'll just have to do without my brilliant choices.
― Josef K-Doe (WmC), Monday, 4 July 2011 14:24 (fourteen years ago)
I agree this is a problem...allowing everyone to upload five tracks each doesn't work well with more than a couple of users.
― Samantha Mumbahton (seandalai), Monday, 4 July 2011 14:27 (fourteen years ago)
Hmm, I'll gladly remove some of my tunes from the queue if that means more people will upload theur tunes.
― Tuomas, Monday, 4 July 2011 14:27 (fourteen years ago)
I'm at work so not available for Outloudage anyway...btw my comment wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, I've maxed out the queue myself on numerous occasions.
― Samantha Mumbahton (seandalai), Monday, 4 July 2011 14:30 (fourteen years ago)
The reason I put the max amount was because few others seemed to be uploading, but maybe they didn't want to upload because of so many tunes in the queue? Oh no, it's a vicious circle!
― Tuomas, Monday, 4 July 2011 14:32 (fourteen years ago)
a bit of restraint and turn-taking and not queueing anything when there's more than half a dozen already up ought to fix that. again not pointing a finger cos i've shoved plenty of tracks up.
― SB OK (Noodle Vague), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:39 (fourteen years ago)
Yeah I think we can place our faith in self-regulation.
― Samantha Mumbahton (seandalai), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:41 (fourteen years ago)
I'm also liable to queue up drones, horrible noises and/or insect music, stuff I figure might not go over too well.
― Josef K-Doe (WmC), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:43 (fourteen years ago)
people cd maybe delete anything they've queued if they're gonna leave the room. wouldn't want to have rules about what kind of things people shd play but obv i wouldn't queue up 5 looooong Merzbow tracks and then fuck off cos that wd be a bit doltish imo
― SB OK (Noodle Vague), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:53 (fourteen years ago)
Okay, we decided that tonight's theme is SPACE! Log in to Outloud and get your cosmic kicks!

I'm down

I'll be there in, um, 5 hours or so.
― Samantha Mumbahton (seandalai), Monday, 4 July 2011 16:19 (fourteen years ago)
Also, we thought that if there's 5 or more people uploading stuff, it would be a good rule for each person to have a maximum of 2 tunes in the queue.
― Tuomas, Monday, 4 July 2011 16:21 (fourteen years ago)
I think if people hang fire queueing as well you've got more chance of thematically linking into the track before.
― SB OK (Noodle Vague), Monday, 4 July 2011 16:31 (fourteen years ago)
yes
― ȣ_ȣ Ȣ_Ȣ ȣ_ȣ Ȣ_Ȣ ȣ_ȣ (absolutely clean glasses), Monday, 4 July 2011 16:39 (fourteen years ago)
The space theme is rolling nicely, but it'd be cool to have more people uploading stuff.
― Tuomas, Monday, 4 July 2011 20:02 (fourteen years ago)
lol the moment I show up today, there are but four tracks in the queue. By the time I upload my second one, there will be an hour wait to until it plays. I know it wasn't the case, but it felt like "JF is here...let's load up the queue really fast!"
― Alpaca Lips (Johnny Fever), Monday, 4 July 2011 21:40 (fourteen years ago)

alright, here's the word from Michael:
hey dude. i know, i'm sorrywe're bummed too, but the reality of it is that we recently started getting letters and phone calls from BMI, SESAC, and ASCAP (the music licensing agencies) asking for money to secure licensing, since continuing to operate the site requires broadcast licenses from each agency. way more money than we are capable of coughing up right now, sadly. so at the risk of also getting legal threats for not paying up, we had to take it down for now until we figure something out. i'd like to bring the site back in some fashion, maybe something password resicted or invite only, but i'm not clear on if that would protect us legally either - we'll have to see.
