Bandwidth allowance? Are you using the poor people's Internet?
Most mobile phones have a download limit... As some one has pointed out
if using a mobile make sure it doesn't drop across to 3G if it loses the
WiFi...
A 128kbps stream is roughly 60MBhr and will chomp through 1GB in around
16 hours. (If I've got the maths right...).
That's always been my objection to 'internet radio' - most ISPs have a
monthly useage limit.
We're on VM and I don't know if they do cap it anymore since we went to
the 30 meg speed but it does get hammered these days mainly with U tube
and iplayer...
If you could use a Freeview box to supply the feed instead...
Yep...
