hi guys!

I`ve wanted to have my own internet radio station, so I started using shoutcast, but the only problem is that it uses my upload ( wich is 256kbps ) and I can`t be listened by many people.
So I ` ve searched on the internet and I found out about icecast!
My question is : Are there by any chance a way that I can send my audio files to my listeners via some free server on the internet?

It seems to me that IceS is the program for that kind of thing!
Thanks.

A source client (like ices) can be remote from icecast, so sending from your own machine to an internet server is certainly possible and is a setup that is commonly used but if you are asking whether someone will give you free bandwidth on their server then that is a very different question.
