    Why don't you guys set up a 'radio station' to restream the audio from the stream into game via the aether headsets? Would be cool

    This was something that Avatars Radio had done in the past but the listeners were actually not interested. They would rather watch it then listen to it. Those that listened to the radio wanted to hear music, so we stopped doing it. The tech behind the how and why is a little more difficult then that as well.

    It can be a thing, it used to be a thing, however, it is currently not a thing because of those reasons.

    If we had more interest, truly had listeners wanting this to return. We are prepared to bring it back. But there was just no interest in the past and the tech behind is a bit tricky.

    I could see that, amber, but that's changing your programming to fill a gap with another. I'm gonna be running some tech tests to see how difficult it would be to do it using my own stream n the future, I have people working on it.

    Interestingly, I do listen to the stream while online by playing the stream on another computer. But most of the time, I end up switching to the other computer because I want to see something.
