Stream101 New Features Update!

Tweet

We're excited to write to everyone about our upcoming launch of several new, very cool tools!  Please remember that if you have any questions to open a support ticket. Replying to this email will not do anything, we will NOT get it!

1. Mobile Streaming App!
   • Stream101 has been researching the implementation of true mobile SHOUTcast and ICEcast Streaming, and after several months and many dollars later, we are about ready to release our Stream101 Mobile App.  Right now the app currently works with Blackberry, Android, iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad, and Symbian based phones.  The app is specially designed for touch-based phones!  More details about this are outlined below.
2. Flash-Based Player
   • Stream101 will also be launching a brand-new Flash-based popup player.  This is a highly requested new feature as our old player does NOT work with ICEcast while this new player does. (Provided you are streaming an MP3 format).  The new flash based player will feature Now Playing information (now playing currently only works with SHOUTcast).
3. Stream101 Pro-Tools
   • The above features will be launched as a part of a new package offered to all Stream101 clients called the Stream101 Pro-Tools package.  This will be available for all Stream101 Streaming Clients and even those who are not clients of Stream101.  The catch?  The Pro-Tools package will be 100% FREE to all Current and Future Stream101 Clients, however a small fee will be charged for those who wish to use our package with another stream provider.  This will allow the continued development of the Pro-Tools.  We will also have a Paid version of the Pro-Tools that can be CUSTOM BRANDED for your particular station/application!
4. Pro-Tools Cost
   • Basic Package - Free for all Clients.  It will contain our logo somewhere and our copyright information.
   • Brand-Free Package - $2.00/Month.  We will remove our logo from the pro-tools.  The copyright information will remain in-tact.
   • Custom-Brand Package - $5.00/Month.  We remove our logo and replace it with yours.  The copyright will be changed to your station/company name.  A custom URL can be obtained if desired.
   • "Outsider" Package - $2.00/Month. The Basic Package offered for anyone who does not host their stream with Stream101.
   • All packages will be hosted on our high-quality web servers.
5. Launch Date
   • The best answer is SOON!  We are finalizing the last beta test stages.  (We don't want to launch a buggy product!)
   • Our GOAL for official release is Monday October 3rd.
     • All Clients will receive instructions on how to obtain the Pro-Tools Package!
6. Client Area Update
   • We have updated our Client Area to make it a little easier to navigate and have added some pretty cool features!  Check it out and let us know what you think.
