Second
price is for Unicast Technology.
Chaincast
Technology uses the Station's Listener PC & Bandwidth to forward the
broadcast to other listeners as a proxy server. Many consider the use
of this technology fundamentally wrong although its use is not
currently illegal or prohibited in the United States of America.

Advantage
Unlimited monthly bandwidth with no simultaneous listener caps
are the hallmark feature from BRM.
The Dual-Band Option is also a very popular option many
stations use to gain the biggest audience and best quality
output available.
