I've observed these days that the site has been skipping more songs than usually (2 out of 12), specially tonight (4 am EST).
Also I've observed that the amount of possible listeners has gone down from 294 to 248 (280 or so yesterday).
Finally, the site server has been crashing since last Sunday, and I'm getting more and more frequently 'Page not available' messages.
Is there anything wrong with SST?
Is there anything we can help?

"I've observed these days that the site has been skipping more songs than usually (2 out of 12), specially tonight (4 am EST)."
-That is just random. How many did it skip in 98 songs played?
"Also I've observed that the amount of possible listeners has gone down from 294 to 248 (280 or so yesterday)."
-This will fluctuate between 248 & 294. Relays go up and down without my control. The max listeners will be going down to about half that very soon. I just cannot afford to pay the fees and I just feel horrible relying on the same few people every month for their contributions.
"Finally, the site server has been crashing since last Sunday, and I'm getting more and more frequently 'Page not available' messages."
-The main 128k relay had a switch replaced Monday. This should fix the buffering/skips/drops problem during peak times. Also, I think my webhost is having problems with their provider. A lot of people could not even access the site, even myself. Everything appears to be running fine now. If you get 'Page Not found' errors please report them to me.
"Is there anything wrong with SST?"
-Sometimes, but things should smooth out again soon.
"Is there anything we can help?"
-Yes, the usual things are:
1. Donate via PayPal/Amazon Honor System
2. When buying anything online, especially Amazon.com click on the links from SST first so that we get some commission. Check out the list of Sponsors.
3. Donate your bandwidth.
4. Donate your soundtracks.
5. Promote SST by Word-Of-Mouth, Bulletin Boards, Forums, Links, Merchandise, etc.
Thank you esparvel for your concerns. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

I can't really tell how many songs were skipped, but my idea is that today the amount was higher than usually, about eight/ten in fifty songs. To me, that's a rather unusual amount and has made me think if there was anything wrong (added to the other two facts).
Thanks for your time and patience.
