Hosting Plan

Up to 1 TB of monthly bandwidth (combined upload/download) is provided. The bandwidth may be utilized with any reasonable number of streams and configurations. Please communicate your needs when inquiring about the service.

As this is a free service, it is provided AS-IS with no warranty of any kind. Efforts will be made to maintain a reliable service with high uptime, but no guarantees for uptime will be made. It is recommended that AudioPump be used in conjunction with other stream hosting for redundancy. AudioPump Server is currently in development. Any errors or problems with the service should be reported. Finally, the service may be terminated at any time.
