What ya think of this...

A internet radio station for BYOND.
24/7 good music, with cool DJ's.
And stuff like:

-Latest BYOND news,

-Special shows,

-In-game comment/Game reviews

-Game previews (interview with creator).

-Way more!

What u guys think of it?
I came to this cuz i'm really into internet radio these days, and i got a good radio server..
(96kbps Stereo and higher, max. listeners 35, soon above 100)
Doesn't sound like something that would be up on the BYOND site, but you can put it on your own site. Also, I don't think I'll be listening, ever.
I think it'd be very cool. Besides its adding to the community, and in my opinion thats a good thing.

I probably won't ever listen to it except initially just to see what the heck this was scraped together as. Why? Read on.

A internet radio station for BYOND.

Hmm, this is intriguing, since I wouldn't normally associate BYOND with music. I associate BYOND with Java: flash in the pan technology that took the limelight for a few hours, then died off, cast to the side with VB. Except Java was around earlier than BYOND, and that was its one-trick pony. BYOND is just slow and nasty, not even revolutionary.

24/7 good music, with cool DJ's.

Good music? Hm. This assumes that everyone thinks of the music being played as "good", which is a pretty big assumption, not good. Cool DJs? Bah. Anyone who would do that sort of thing for BYOND for any period of time would be a squeaky-voiced cro-mag with zero social skills. Not exactly the person you want in a talking environment.

And stuff like:

-Latest BYOND news,

Reading straight from the Announcements board is both easier to understand and more accurate than some sloshy radio announcement.

-Special shows,

This is what we call "vague filler" to make any document sound important or look longer.

-In-game comment/Game reviews

"Yep, I've been running around the same bland environment killing the same old monsters for experience. The controls are inherently lame, and the gameplay is akin to eating my own snot."

Sadly enough, any announcer on such a radio station wouldn't have a thousandth of that quantity of wit.

-Game previews (interview with creator).

"Well, our game is all original with all the pbags and Zeta code taken out, but some Zeta icons still left in. COME PLAY TODAY!"

-Way more!

Filler!

Terrible idea, to be as blunt as possible.

96kbps is garbage, anyone with any sort of taste in audio can tell you that. If you think you'll even get 5 listeners, you're out of your foolish mind.
