Tom's show is a regular FM radio show that AM just happens to retransmit. There's no control over its content.

Understood.

I am trying to market the show on the my space (it does work), and will talk up ALL the programming.

The "marketing" is great. I only wish we had more streams to bring on the potential new moonies. The web server has had as many as 150+ people on it. I doubt all the listeners we have also hang on the web page; I'd bet there's probably more that don't. I can handle the web site without issue in terms of the bandwidth but I just don't have the bandwidth it takes to handle all the streams -- I wish I did. Verizon is supposed to be stringing fiber here by this time next year. Maybe then I could take on the streaming server.
