Yeah, I don't know how to get a handle on exactly what is running afoul of what, where. But I am glad that if set the limit to 250 it runs along quite nicely, and apparently the various aggregators / directories which are used for things like "tabletop WiFi radios" are coping OK with having a primary and when full the secondary server. Obviously the listen.pls files I've got have both servers, but getting the directories / apps / aggregators to follow along is sometimes a pain and sometimes just a complete mystery. I find that almost no one is using Winamp on a PC, most of my listeners seem to be using some kind of Android device; iTunes is also popular on many platforms, but iTunes is no problem... then there are listeners using Nokia Symbian devices and NokiaRadio and on and on....
And, by the way, the instance of sc_serv has TWO streams (two separate stations, from two instances of sc_trans) one limited to 250, the other to 50, and so the magic number is probably 300 in fact, not 250.
The second instance of sc_serv carries only the "big" stream, the other stream has few fans so it's single instance of sc_serv limted to 50 listeners has never filled up. Typical load is 20-30.
I often forget about that other station, so few people listen (and fewer still send money!)
