By using our site, you confirm that you accept these terms of use and that you agree to comply with them.

Our site lists (and in some case, hosts and streams) audio content provided by online radio stations. We have no editorial control over, and are not responsible for, the audio content available to stream on our site
Other applicable terms
To get started with At The Top Media Radio you will first need to sign upto a radio server, this can be done here. You then basically have two options for the type of streaming server that you can opt for. These are ‘Shoutcast’ servers and ‘Icecast’ servers. To help you decide which is better suited for your own stations needs, the topic and main differences between the two is discussed in further detail here.
Next you will need to decide upon a bitrate for your stream. The higher the bitrate that you opt for the better quality your stream will be and vice versa for lower bitrates. A more detailed explanation of bitrates can be found here with some audio examples for you to listen to. All of our streaming servers have at least a minimum of 500 listeners and a maximum bitrate of 320 kbps.
For those that are wishing to stream their radio live, you will need to decide upon your stream encoder software. As we discussed earlier, this encoding software basically compresses the audio signal into a more streamable format allowing for a quicker data transfer rates, this signal is then sent to our dedicated radio servers. There are several stream encoders available, some of which are free and some others with more advanced features you would be required to purchase. You can find a link to some of the stream encoding software that we would recommend to you here. Our ‘Guides’ section of our forum also provides several detailed and easy to follow tutorials on correctly setting these encoders up for use with our radio servers.
