If you’re streaming MP3, 128 kbps is more than enough bitrate. If you’re streaming AAC, 64 kbps will be enough for high-quality radio streaming.

What do I need to be able to broadcast a ShoutCast radio programme? Which software and equipment do I require?
How long does radio hosting activation take?
If you’re paying using a credit/debit card or PayPal, the service will be ready momentarily upon payment. If you’re paying via bank transaction, it can take up to 48 hours, however, you send us the payment confirmation in order to speed up the activation process.
Which players is Setcor radio hosting compatible with?
Setcor radio hosting is compatible with all major players and devices.
Does radio hosting cover streaming copyright?
No. If you’re playing commercial music on your radio station, you need to obtain the authors’ consent. You can request more information from your local copyright collection society.
How can I sell hosting under my own brand?
Every reseller hosting package enables you to add your own branding elements (logo, contact information, your own nameserver domains). In fact, your users never even need to know that you’re a Setcor user. You can contact our customer support for any help with branding you might need. We’ll be glad to help.
Which operating system is used for the reseller hosting service?
All our reseller packages are based on Linux servers and include WHM/cPanel control panels.
I’m not sure which reseller plan I should get, can I change it at some point?
Of course! You can quickly and easily upgrade your reseller hosting package at any time. All you have to do is send an inquiry to our support team indicating the package you want. Afterwards, our support team will create an offer for the payment of the price difference between the existing and the new package. Your package will become active upon its payment.
Is there a refund guarantee with regard to reseller hosting?
Setcor offers you a 15-day refund guarantee regarding its reseller service, no questions asked and no special procedure necessary.
How does my own customer support work if I’m using reseller hosting?
As a reseller, you’re providing support to your own customers; you’re completely in control of the communication with your hosting users – after all, you’re the owner of your business! You’ll be able to create your own website, set up hosting packages and pricing, install scripts and modify certain aspects of user websites. Naturally, Setcor support is available 24 hours a days for its reseller customers. You can contact us at any time regarding high-level technical or server issues. Setcor is responsible for uninterrupted functioning and stability of the reseller hosting service, and we’ll always be glad to help you with questions related to the functioning of the server.
