Who has the cheapest bandwidth?
 
Inexpensive bandwidth needed, just something for a shoutcast stream with about 200 listeners. Let's say about 100 listeners on average. A hobby station, that isn't earning anything really.

Doesn't need apache. Doesn't need php, mysql, etc.. Will run a shoutcast or icecast server. No real disk space needed either. Just plenty of bandwidth.

Leaseweb in NL is pretty cheap.

Thanks. Looks like $300/mo for an unmetered server with Leaseweb. Anything better? I don't need powerful hardware with lots of fast new ram. I just need cheaper bandwidth.

for 100 listeners @ 128kbps(kilo bits per second) you need 12.8Mbps take listeners * bitrate / 1000 = Megabits per second. don't use 1024 because this is mega bits per second not a fixed file size.

alphared you can get 20mbps for less than $280

FDC Servers has some Shoutcast hosting plans - http://www.fdchost.com/index-3.html

Thanks. I've been looking at price per GB mostly. So I'd want to try and get something closer to 15Mbps Spud?
