Could i put some radio stations for some peoples?

[sylvain]

Hi

Its been a while i am with you, more than 10 years as far as i remember. Some peoples suggested to my self, that it could be a great idea if i would put some radio stations in my website free. So i have done some search, even asked some ai about sites that offer free and mostly legally, the possibility to embed there radio stations. I have found the result of Radio.net, maybe there are others?!

I have think of maybe max 20 radio stations, because there are radio about news, radio about sports, radio that play like rock musics, radio that plays oldies, radio that plays country, radio that plays disco; maybe even radio that simply play some relaxing nature natural sounds.

Also because the radio is embed, it use the resource of external. So i think that it should not use much of heliohost resources. Note that it is not my intentions to make profits, i dont think that in the future i could have profits. My personal free website is mostly for my self, and some peoples that can find interesting content.

Still it is always important for me to respect the peoples related to heliohost and helionet. I know that my intentions are good, as it have always been. But i want to be sure if i can put some Radio.net radio stations legally? Also because i have difficulties to understand many terms and agreements, they are very complex for me to understand; so i would like a written simple (Yes or No) to have the possibility to add some free radio stations. Not only for me, because i have found great radio station to listen, it is also for the peoples that have suggested that i do so. When i think about it, it can even rise the popularity and audiences of theses radio stations; all this free for them without making any profits.

Thanks for your time to reply to this question. Thanks also for all your great help, great services. You always have been great peoples for me. Also i wish you the best good things for this year of 2025 and the years to come.

Hi,

Well, I'm not an admin, but if they are okay with you adding radio stations, I actually have a station of my own, hdp radio, which is mainly a talk station. The website is https://hdpradio.heliohost.us. I can send you the code for an imbedable player for my station if helio host is okay with that of course. My station officially launches to the public on January 19, 2025 at midnight eastern time.

Well i think that because you have a radio station, and that you have a heliohost url with the address that have the word radio into it; then i think logically that i can have the right to do so. But i dont think that i would put like 1000 radio stations, that's out of the question. Its not because i have a website with them for soo many  years, that they have notice trough the years that i have no bad intentions; that i will abuse of this privilege.

They always have been great peoples for me, i like them very much and appreciate them also very much. Many of them have helped me with my website (moderators/administrators). Even some members had helped me. If it was not from peoples that wanted sincerely and honestly good things for me trough the years, i would not be and have all the good things in my life. Yup i appreciate sincerely each of them. Also like i say (by joking) its important to be friendly to peoples, you never know if one of those peoples gonna win a very big amount of money; with some lottery ticket number. Hihihihihi.

Yes Hunterp11 i think it would be a great idea to embed your radio player station. Who know maybe one day you could talk on your radio station about my free pdf guides, you could write me some questions about my guides; and i would write you back about it. There is much content about my pdf guidest, maybe the www.uneq.qc.ca and others related; would like that i create a french guide for paper books. Glad that i would promote free your website, and probably be the first website that promote your radio station. Who knows, you could say and archive trough history; that i am one of the first websites that promoted you. Maybe one day you will turn out a world known radio station, and i would say: Yesss i know the celebrity, that know who i am; it's the amazing Hunterp11 😁 👍.

The thing is for embeding your radio player station, it must be of small size of height and width; like maybe something as 180px width by maybe 70px height. It is something that is important to make it real small. Maybe with some Play button, that when clicked become a Pause button; and reversed. Brief to keep it small, so that it can even fit in some small size screens. You could send me a private message here on Helionet, with your embed codes. This because the contact by email, as said in the Helionet news have reached some points limits; but in time i think should work back again.

As long as the radio station doesn't broadcast any copyrighted material such as music or shows for example, we're perfectly fine with it.

As long as the radio station allows embedding their player in third party sites, and he uses the station's provided player and content in accordance with whatever license the station provides, he can host it regardless of what the station chooses to broadcast (the station is responsible at that point). What he can't do is host recordings of the broadcast, charge for access, embed a player for a station that says their player cannot be redistributed or embedded, etc.

Regardless, he will still get suspended for copyright infringement if we receive a complaint.

Well the radio player i think is with the website of Radio.net. They have many choices of radio stations to embed for all peoples. I also have found some info as: https://radio.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/224885347-How-can-I-embed-the-radio-net-player-into-my-website , that is linked to Radio.net. They indicate to simply write something in there search, example (oldies/top/country/etc.) or choose one of there categories. This make a page appear of the chosen radio station, there you see the Embed text on the radio station. They give there html codes after to embed. So i think it is legal.

This because some peoples have suggested to me, that it would be great if they can have some radio stations to listen; like when there are cooking/cleaning some have told me. Also because it is some html codes, that go get the radio station not from heliohost; i think that it dont take much of the bandwidth (except of course simply loading the page). Some peoples suggested to me some news radio station, some peoples suggested to me some sports radio station; others have suggested to me different radio categories (rock/hard rock/oldies/countrys/nature relaxing station/disco/rap/jokes station/finances/etc.) But there is too much different stations, that it is real hard for me to choose. Also that i think about 20 free radio stations (but its real hard to not go up to like 40 stations) to try to give a little good to each peoples.

What also i have think about is that in my website (new im building, not online at the time) that i put into some (block section) to put some i think "im no expert" some kind of what they call an (iframe). That into this iframe, there would be the embed radio player, but also some kind of dropdown list that can scrool (showing maybe like 4 choices, but scroolable). Like so a user with the dropdown scrooling, make the radio embed player change (change the radio page) that is into the iframe (so dont have to reload the hole webpage); like 1 page into the iframe has the radio station (example CountryX), then the dropdown, make the page change into the iframe; with an other embed radio station. Doing so i think it should use less loading page data on heliohost bandwidth. Because it just load and change the page that have the embed radio player. Maybe with some (left arrow/right arrow) on each side of the dropdown list as "previous/next station". 

The thing is that im not much expert doing this kind of iframe with the Radio.net embed player; with dropdown list, with maybe next/previous page station. Also there is so many choices. I do believe that im not only need some help with the html codes to put into my page for the iframe, that make simply the radio page into change; to the next embed choosen radio page. I think i would need help also for some suggestions for good radio stations (mostly english and french language).

Could you please check if Radio.net is legal? For me i think it is legal, because they give there embed radio stations free; also that it rise there audience and visibility free. I dont want to be suspended, and i dont think there would be some complaints; because it promote there free embed legal content i believe. But i want to be sure that it is fine with all of you? Its always important for me to respect heliohost and helionet.

I always try to give good things to/for peoples. Like i say to give good things to/for the peoples and leave good footprints into peoples lives. I can easy imagine how hard is for moderators and administrators to work for heliohost and helionet, trying to give not only good things to peoples; but also to try to maintain good things for the users. Yup it must be real hard. At leass you know how much i appreciate all of you, and that i let you also know it. Thanks for all your help, for each of you into my life, thanks for your reply's.

Recently some peoples had say that it could be very difficult to do. I have try to understand them why, but it seem too much complicated for me to understand. So i think to abandon this embed idea, when so many peoples have told me it would be great to do so. It sad because i want so many good things for the peoples. Peoples that know me, know that my intentions are good and not against any ones. So i think it would be maybe better for them, that i simply when i have time, to create some radio page that simply have some text link to the url of the free radio station website. Maybe some sections, that by clicking some category; would make some scrooling list of url links?

Maybe peoples could suggest me free legal online radio station to listen online, without having to subscribe to listen simply online. I have heard that there is some english news and french news suggested as: Msnbc and FranceInfo. Maybe some peoples have some suggestions?

Thanks for your time and help. 👍
