Is TMCast an alternative to AzuraCast?

Yes — TMCast is fully managed internet radio hosting. AzuraCast is excellent self-hosted software, but you have to rent and maintain your own server. With TMCast we run the infrastructure for you: AutoDJ, stream relay and a metadata API from $10/month.

How much does TMCast cost?

$10 per month as a subscription (cancel anytime) or $10 one-time for a single month. Optional guided setup and onboarding is $25 one-time.

Can I migrate my existing station to TMCast?

Yes. The $25 Station Setup includes configuring your encoder, endpoints and artwork — we help you move your media and playlists over during onboarding.

Does TMCast have AutoDJ?

Yes — 24/7 AutoDJ is included in every plan, along with a stream relay and a now-playing metadata API.

TMCast

The AzuraCast alternative for people who don't want to run servers.

AzuraCast is great software — we run AzuraCast nodes ourselves. But self-hosting means renting a VPS, applying updates, fixing outages and keeping backups. TMCast is the managed version: your station, our infrastructure, from $10/month.

Side by side

Self-hosted vs managed.

	AzuraCast (self-hosted)	TMCast (managed)
Software cost	Free, open source	Included
Server	You rent & manage a VPS (~$5–20/mo)	We run it — nothing to manage
Updates, backups, uptime	Your job	Our job
AutoDJ 24/7	Yes	Yes
Now-playing metadata API	Yes	Yes
Human support	Community forums	Real support team
Time to launch	An afternoon of sysadmin	Same day, guided
Price	VPS + your time	$10/month, cancel anytime

Fair note: if you enjoy sysadmin and want root access, self-hosted AzuraCast is a fine choice. TMCast is for broadcasters who'd rather spend that time on their station.
