Audio/Video Streaming Hosts are underserved by many webpanels. CWP Please Promote your audio hosting capabilities. I'm not sure if you have video streaming capabilities. Streaming is poised to greatly increase through the years......

I used to have my Audio Hosting and Web Hosting on different panels. I move to CWP to reduce my SERVER overhead by using my own VPS. I gave CWP a try for WEBPANEL FUNCTIONALITY, during the exploration phase of the software I noticed the SHOUTcast feature, I was excited, I didn't even know SHOUTCAST was a feature when I installed CWP(THERE IS NO MENTION OF THE AUDIO STREAMING CAPABILITIES ANYWHERE ON THE CWP HOMEPAGE), but left it for later. Later became almost 4 years, and I'm upset I did not implement my SHOUTCAST server on CWP sooner. I had a learning curve in setting up a panel on a VPS from scratch with very little Linux understanding. I am glad I gave CWP a try.

I appreciate being able to remove the need for a separate panel for hosting SHOUTcast, although I do miss their streaming analytics function. Hence this post.

Hosting audio is another world on its own, Not sure if CWP sees their audio streaming function as something small but integrating the audio streaming capabilities of Shoutcast/ICEcast is a POWER MOVE by CWP. I hope they can recruit more audio streaming engineers to the CWP team to drive development in the SHOUTcast/ICEcast and the POWERHOUSE of audio/video hosting.

Dedicated "SHOUTCAST/ICEcast" or "AUDIO/VIDEO Hosting" TOPIC on Forum (not sure if CWP supports video hosting)

To help better centralize the issues of SHOUT/ICEcast (Audio/Video) hosts that can be developed into solutions for GUI. Example: 1. Auto SLL for streams  Example 2. Enable SLL via STUNNEL through GUI.
