Provide a separate link for AAC broadcasting, as some directories require AAC and will not work with MP3.
Or maybe even allowing users to select if they want their station to broadcast in AAC or MP3 format, if a second link is not possible.

Maxhd64I would like to broadcast using AAC-LC at 64k. this will save on bandwith costs and more compatibilty among devices..I will sign up if AAC is allowed..

Matt MergedHello, would love support for He-AAC v2 (AAC+). The reason is that for MP3 to sound good you can't broadcast anything less than 128kbps and this is data hungry not everyone expecially on mobile devices have access to unlimited data! Support for HE-AAC would allow 32kbps streaming that sounds as good if not better than 128kbps!

MattAgreed! This is my biggest issue with the new live365.. MP3 is a legacy technology and does not allow for low bit rates to sound good.

ce10 MergedHi,
Can we get AAC stream URLs for our stations?
Thanks! -

Lorenzo Thomas MergedTo whom it may concern:
I am a former member of Live365, and I have one question. Will Live365 offer AAC streams in the future? I hope Live365 would consider the option. If that is the case, and Live365 moves in that Direction, our station would return to Live365 immediately because my station broadcast at 320 KBPS! The audio quality is so much better, and I believe more owners would consider joining if the option were made available.
Thank you again,
Lorenzo Thomas -

KenMy vote is to also (or instead) support an AACP *uplink* for us live broadcasters, where we send a *single stream* that l365 would rebroadcast (i.e. decode and re-encode) it to whatever codecs and bitrates listeners happen to use.

Steven WhiteAACP/modern codec availability is essential. MP3 is an inferior, legacy technology that should no longer be considered as a primary source stream.

ScoodaTo have the ability of AAC Streaming is groundbreaking and will be something that is very usable for all clients. With everything moving into a ‘digital’ world this would be the best time for Live365 to capitalize on.

Charlie O'brienHE-AAC is the way to go - I'm all for it on L365. 64kbps stream would blow any mp3 stream out of the water for quality. Twice the sound and half the bandwidth.
I have a dual stream and one is HE-AAC. Also using WAV or uncompressed FLAC source files makes every stream better - but it rocks in HE-AAC.
