    Great stuff!

    Radio by airwaves are also free

    I wonder how long before some entity like safact starts cracking down on piracy hubs like WUG.

    More like R1800 for the kit. But we have enough members thanks. Network is running perfectly for the past couple of months now, don't want it flooded with thousands of new users bringing the rest of us to our knees.

    Finally eh. About 20 different people, incl. me, have tried to host a stream on WUG for TuksFM but the patience runs out.

    1800 is a kit , but there is cheaper options

    just over 1k gets you a groove Hn and 27dbi grid , then you just need the pole and lan cable, groove HN also have a better wireless card then the standard kit on the scoop site, think they include a normal r52 card.

    Well then they will have to shut down ADSL & the entire internet in SA as well. Kinda like shutting down the post office because people use them to transport drugs and other banned items.

    Obviously. I was just curious. Apparently some of the music companies in US are going to target more and more sites like megaupload or torrentreactor...
