I'm trying to build a basic internet radio station with Drupal but don't know if it's possible. The idea is to add a radio feature to our existing intranet (already built with Drupal). Employees would be able to queue up songs they'd like to hear and those would be streamed to any employees that are listening. Ideally, if no songs were queued up, it'd randomly select from the existing library of songs. Don't know if there's a module or set of modules that would handle this. I looked at Station but that seems to be more of an informational set of tools to show what a physical radio station is playing. Any ideas?

I would think you could do this using views to setup the playlist and flag to allow users to flag songs for inclusion in the view (from a content type named 'songs' which has a filefield containing the song). You'll need to checkout any of the playlist modules that support views.

I'm interested in internet radio, too. But I fear that it will make my website lacking.

Thanks for the input. Know anything about streaming audio through Drupal?
