Office Streaming Music

[yeti]

Hi Guys,

I'd like to setup a streaming music service ('office radio station') to be used internally at work.
We are a linux shop and the solution should be open source. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Quick one: VLC

VLC as the server playing a playlist and then broadcasting and then you can use VLC as client as well.

I assume you just want to basically play music in a playlist and then people listen to it, rather than a full on radio station

Also, does one person control the music or anyone can add to it? Perhaps vote on songs to play next? Thats possible from what I have seen before.

Perhaps look at your package manager and search for stream to see what is there already.
