How do you start an internet radio station?

Hello rh2842,

The following article provides information and links on how to start
an Internet radio station:

"Creating Your Own Internet Radio Station"
About.com: Radio
http://radio.about.com/library/weekly/aa013003a.htm

I recommend navigating through the entire article and each of the
links, so that you get the full benefit.  Some of the material is
outdated; but you'll still get the idea of options on how to start.

(Note: I have not researched podcasting for this answer, since that is
not typically implied by the term "Internet radio station.")

If you need clarification, please let me know, so that I may do follow-up research.
