FAQ's
Snakeice Internet Radio FAQ's
How can I make a request and
dedication?
Click on the link that
says "Make Request & Dedications", then search by the
songs name or artist name or use the letters on the bottom to search
by artist/group name in alpha or numeric order.
How Can
I Listen Without an External Player?
To listen without an external player
click on one of the embedded web players 
on the site. The 32kbps is
idea if you have a dial-up connection and the 160kbps & 320kbps
will give you better sound if you have broadband.
You can click on the link that says "Web Java Player Auto Adjust to Internet speed" and a Java mp3 player will spawn and play the music as well as adjust to your Internet connection speed to play at the appropriate bit rate for your Internet connection speed.
Can I get a virus listening to the music stream?
No you will not get a virus listening to the music stream.
Why does clicking on Winamp or "Windows Media Player" bring up another external mp3 player?
This is the probably because the mp3 player coming up when you click on these links are associated with mp3 file types on the computer system you are listening the music stream on.

Yes you can click on the "Buy" icon or even the
song cover art and it will take you to a link where you can purchase
and then download the songs you like.
Where can I get Winamp?
You can get Winamp player @ http://www.winamp.com/player

Hi,
Loving the radio station I'm based in the UK slight problem with your stream. When i press play on my sonos player it plays your station for a bout 10 secs and then stops ( been trying for about a week now). Is there anything that can be done about this ?
Really waanna hear your station.
Brill station by the way
Hi Nindy I'm not terribly familiar with the Sonos Player but I looked it up and its quite the device looking at the specifications. It sounds like some buffering is taking place and then the stream times out. There are several ways to tackle this and possibly more. I'll list a several and there could be other fixes as well!
1) Take a look at your connection speed if you connect wireless and try to get closer to your wireless connection if possible and check your connection strength. If wireless limit the other applications such as browser going over the internet.
2) Check to see if there is a setting that allows more buffering as well.
3) Test with Winamp or VLC to try and isolate if its a device issue with Sonos.
4) If you have the ability connect using a lower stream bandwidth, the following are bandwidths i offer on my station and the accompanying ports:
- http://dhoytt.com:8010 - 32kbps
- http://dhoytt.com:8020 - 128kbps
- http://dhoytt.com:8000 - 160kbps
- http://dhoytt.com:8025 - 320kbps
5) I'm always trying to improve as well and will be doing some wire management with my infrastructure that may help as well!
Any questions or you need clarification please ask! Thanks for the feedback!
Paul Graham explains why people who concentrate on getting work done often skip everyday chores in his essay "Good and Bad Procrastination":
That's the "absent-minded professor," who forgets to shave, or eat, or even perhaps look where he's going while he's thinking about some interesting question. His mind is absent from the everyday world because it's hard at work in another.
"That's the sense in which the most impressive people I know are all procrastinators. They're type-C procrastinators: they put off working on small stuff to work on big stuff.
"What's "small stuff?" Roughly, work that has zero chance of being mentioned in your obituary. It's hard to say at the time what will turn out to be your best work (will it be your magnum opus on Sumerian temple architecture, or the detective thriller you wrote under a pseudonym?), but there's a whole class of tasks you can safely rule out: shaving, doing your laundry, cleaning the house, writing thank-you notes—anything that might be called an errand.
Good procrastination is avoiding errands to do real work.
