Or you are certainly to young :)
Voting songs and the like on shoutcast/icecast stations via irc was not only common for gamers if my memory serves me well from the earliest 2000ths
- troad 4mo agoHaha, I'm not too young for that, but I think that was a fairly fringe use case even then. Most people were never on IRC. In the late 90s / early 2000s Internet radio would probably have made me think of RealPlayer, and shortly thereafter actual radio stations' own websites with embedded streams. Then I'd think of aggregators like the original iTunes, and now TuneIn.
