Abstract
The World-wide Web(WWW) works now as the infrastructure over the Internet for multimedia applications. Internet Radio is one of those applications, and provides the users with streaming services over the network regardless of such geographic restrictions as the traditional radio broadcast service systems have. Its growth is explosive. We have started operating an Internet Radio station with streaming music since April 2000. We are planning to provide users with private channels, so that users can listen to their favorite music. This novel type of service is only possible on the Internet, but not on the traditional radio systems. This paper reports our idea on a private channel, a novel service on the Internet Radio, and its design as well as our implementation of a prototype system.
