| 10 YEARS! Time to Party! |
| Have your say too.. |
| CatholicJukebox.com News, anniversary, party, radio |
Can you believe that CatholicJukebox.com radio has been broadcasting 24×7 on Live365 for 10 years? We first went on the air Jan 6, 2000. We had 100 or so songs on the live365 server ripped at a low rate and streaming in mono. How far we have come. We now broadcast in mp3PRO to give the best sound possible. And we went from those hundred songs taking up 200MB to now over 38GB of songs playing from our own dedicated system. Having our own server also has allowed listeners to play DJ, and select the songs they want to hear. That’s not too bad for a micro-niche market. But CatholicJukebox.com is much more than a computer I manage, it’s a family of musicians and fans. Every time I’ve had the opportunity to meet musicians or fans of the music it seems like we’ve known each other for a while. I guess music has it’s way of bringing you closer. But isn’t that why we got into Catholic music in the first place, it brings us closer; closer to God.
So what does a family do when you have an anniversary? PARTY!
We’re going to have to have some type of online party for an online radio station. We’ll come up with something. If you’ve got ideas I’d love to hear them. I’d also love to hear from you. If you want to send along a short MP3 about this anniversary, I’ll put them on the radio station, and maybe another podcast –
And with the good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise we’ll be doing this for another 10. |

Yup, I’m still here. I know I’ve been quiet, but sometimes you have to put your focus where it belongs.
So, I’m getting organized. I have 4 racks full of CDs, and piles on the floor, my desk, the top of the fridge and between the seats in the car. But I finally realized (I’m not very quick) that the problem isn’t the CDs, it’s the jewel cases. 400+ plastic boxes that are 4x thicker than the CDs they protect. Oh, they do a great job at protecting CDs, but know that they are in my protection, why am I stacking plastic cases? So I started today pulling out the CD, and the front and back covers. That’s where all the work is, right? The art design, the layout, the song lists and pressing. Well sure, someone put a lot of work in designing that plastic box. Seeing that I live in “Plastic City” where the National Plastic Museum was across the street from my parish, I know someone put work into it, but I don’t need 400 copies, now do I?
My next step will be to put them into binders. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Just getting them out of the jewel cases is a huge step. And all the cases that my son doesn’t take to play with I will recycle, and all that plastic will continue on to help the world in what ever new form it takes. |
