Been there done that. Costs alone put me off getting one really going. For the licences you have to record the songs played and the number of listeners at that moment in time!

Been there, done it - doing it again end of this year with a mate from Worcester who works with Commercial FM stations.
Shoutcast servers aren't much money, although the licenses are...

I was a presenter on what was billed as the UK's first internet radio station (whether or not this was true, I have no idea). Running from studios in Newbury, Berkshire, the station was run by Bruno Brookes and Neal James, and called Storm Live (no am, no fm...no wonder we kick donkey!).
To cut to the chase, they couldn't make a penny at it, and it folded around a year in.
If you want to do something radio related as a hobby, I'd have a look at hospital radio, or a local RSL.

I used to run a station and the running costs wasn't too bad although getting the listeners was the hardest part along with getting some decent presenters with studio quality equipment as I was broadcasting 128KB/S.
I also spent a fortune on getting new professional jingles and sweepers made up.

I currently am a presenter on a Community Radio station in Tamworth which broadcasts on both FM and online. However, our sister station is purely internet based. If you're interested in doing some shows to see how it goes, then this could be good for you:
