The Jeff Farias Show

Monday, February 2 2009

Join us today for our first program on the Roots Up Radio network. We are all very excited to join the Roots Up Network. Go to the http://rootsupradio.com/ website to install the player. Network Co-founder Lee Rayburn wrote this about the launch. Roots Up Radio Lee Rayburn The Player I want you to know about our media player, because it is new and different. We did not want to have to worry about a rate of return for investors, so we don’t have any investors. Roots Up will return its revenue directly to the broadcasters (which is how I plan to pay rent in 10 days). Therefore, we can’t afford the traditional bandwidth that can easily run over six figures. With your help we have a better way. For Windows, this requires a very basic software download. There is no spyware, malware, crap-ware, or anything else. We’ve made sure of it! It is also more reliable than traditional online streaming media. We’ve also made sure of that! Our media player uses Napster-like technology. Don’t worry- it’s legal! To talk in terms that even indicted former Senator Ted Stevens can understand: instead of buying a big pipeline that everyone can tap into, we send out a single stream that a handful of computers can hear but then those computers pass it along to a handful of other computers until everyone’s computer is interconnected, simultaneously uploading and downloading the stream. For Mac’s, similar software does not yet exist but we expect it soon! Mac users will have to use the old school (and lo-fi) stream for now… For Linux, if you know of anyone working on this code, please let me know!
