Topic: SHOUTCast surprises this morning

Scrolling through the shoutcast list this morning, I was surprised -- the radio stations have greatly changed.  Gone are the NPR stations, and there is a lot of international stations (4 or more Polish stations?).  It's not that I'm against international radio (far from it) but I didn't its listeners were your beta target demographic.

Could we have WBUR and the other NPR stations back on the SHOUTcast list, please?

The shoutcast list scoops the popular stations list that shoutcast.com auto-generates:

http://www.shoutcast.com/

so it'll fluctuate. I think that's kinda the point of Radio Free Chumby - something that Chumby Inc controls more directly.

Correct - we have no control over the stations list. It comes from SHOUTcast just as you see it.

Stations come and go, and move around the list based on popularity.
