yes making your own online radio is so very easy, as long as you have enough bandwidth to allow multiple users.

First, you will need:

1 - Winamp (will not work currently with Winamp 3)

2 - Shoutcast Server

3 - Shoutcast DSP Winamp Plugin http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

4 - Install the dsp plugin and enable it within winamp

5 - Setup the server

Hope all that helps you out and with that you should be broadcasting in no time.

**EDIT, As for your question about a mic and speaking into it, yes, that is also possible but i have never done that so just check around the shoutcast website maybe it will tell you there.

You dont need to do any webdesign, the server is on your computer and you just place a link to your stream. say i had a radio up, i use the free domain icedragn.kicks- and it forwards to my computers ip address, now the radio itself will have its own port number such as, ":8000" or whatever you set it as, and if they go to icedragn.kicks- then they will be brought to the radios menu showing what is playing and giving them the option to listen in if they choose.

As for bandwidth, at the lowest settings you will need a steady upstream of 24Kbits/sec, thats 3Kilobytes/second upload, so if your on dial-up then you wont beable to host your own radio because you just wont have enough bandwidth. You do not need PHP, ASP, or anything, its all pre-made.
