Title: How to prevent rippers
Post by: DJNightfire on November 29, 2013, 02:56:16 pm

Is there a way to prevent anything recognised as a ripper from connecting to streams? It's doing my head in banning them all.  76 I've done so far today.

This was a question asked many times via shoutcast forums and as the main developer stated there is no way.

Why ban?

Just let them stream/rip

They're preventing people that want to listen from tuning in. I could increase the max listeners, but that'll just increase the amount of rippers :(
