    I want to create a radio that will connect to a database and shuffle the songs and play them for the user (like that of myspace.com)

    Last time I made a web player I used a server for web, one for mysql and I got a Wowza server to stream the files. IMHO they're better than icecast, just needs a bit of a setup, but most hosting companies set this up for you.

    Look for companies advertising a SHOUTcast or Icecast server with AutoDJ software, they'll provide the backend.

    Companies like ourselves provide Shoutcast/Icecast hosting with AutoDJ which provides a dynamic streaming protocol over nsv in mp3 format most commonly. Shoutcast/Icecast requires the installation of Shoutcast DNAS onto a linux/windows platform and Icecast similar. Icecast is more complicated to setup and also enc-operates a login setup for streams requiring username/passwords. Hope this helps.

    Do you have a server/host at the moment? Going to be pointless trying to run this from a personal computer. You simply won't get the requirements internet wise to run this on a large scale.

    Internet radio "stations" are usually accessible from anywhere in the world—for example, to listen to an Australian station from Europe or America. This makes it a popular service for expatriates and for listeners with interests not adequately served by local radio stations (such as progressive rock, anime themed music, classical music, 24-hour stand up comedy, and others). Some Internet radio services offer news, sports, talkback, and various genres of music—everything that is on the radio station being simulcast over the internet with a netcast stream
