Coffee Shops and Music

Tehz:
Opening a really indie coffee place has always been a really appealing concept to me.

Good luck with everything.

Tokuma:
We will be opening right on Main Street. The name is Oregon Trail Roasting Company. We will be roasting our own beans, as well as selling coffee. I also forgot to mention that I am trying to work out something that once we are open members of the QC Forums in the area can come by for some free menu item. No promises though ^^

Edit: I should clarify that when I say Main Street I mean a block from the Town "Square".

Second Edit:
@Emaline
If you could send me some links/info on good bands in the area I would very much appreciate it.

But that was just an idea I had a couple years ago and never felt the need to open my own shop to enact it.

If a coffee shop like this opened in my area I would spend all my free time there.

Tokuma: a few things to keep in mind:  When a song gets put on the playlist, make sure it has a timestamp of when it was last played, and on the song selection interface, make sure it doesn't allow you to play a song with a timestamp less than an hour ago... that way people don't spam the same song over and over.

Also, make it accessible to the local network only.  Don't want Web visitors selecting the music in front of the guests in the store !

EDIT: Oh yeah !  And you MUST have Loituma on there !

Tokuma:
All those features are available in the software I am looking at. It's called SAMBroadcaster if you wanna take a look at it.
