Radio Guide: Andromeda comes in three versions. Can you give us a brief comparison?

Scott: Andromeda users range from high school students playing personal collections, to small independent content producers (like bands and religious groups), all the way up to large multinational corporations like Clear Channel, and so we try to price it to suit those different types of users.

Radio Guide: What are your thoughts on the future of Internet Radio?

Scott: Personally, I'd love to see more independent musicians getting exposure over the Internet. Andromeda is a great do-it-yourself alternative to sites like MP3.com -- rather than being dependent on a centralized service, users can serve their work from their own sites.

I'm doing what I can to highlight some in the Microbrowser at the Andromeda site, and I hope to do even more along those lines

Radio Guide: Have I forgot to ask anything important?

Scott: One mistake that some people make is thinking that Andromeda provides an anonymous search and download service like Napster or Kazaa. It's not at all intended for that sort of thing -- Andromeda is for people that want to play their personal collection over a network (including the Internet) and for content produces who choose to share their work.
