Let me get this straight, you've abandoned listenership in favor of clean log files?

Even though I'm not working on Shoutcast anymore , I still run my station (Tag's Trip) and can honestly say I would *NEVER* want to disrespect my listener base in such a way.

I wanted to comment on stream ripping as well.

In my experience (10+ years) of shoutcast development and streaming, I have done countless audits of stations where log's were available to me (Mostly AOL hosted , but a few not).

I can say this with nearly 100 percent accuracy: Stream Ripping comprises less than .1 percent of the total aggregate listener base. So stop abusing your listeners, ignore the stream rippers and concentrate on content and expanding your base.

Nuf Said.
