## What it is
AzuraCast is a self-hosted, all-in-one web radio management suite that packages a full open-source radio software stack (Icecast, Liquidsoap, etc.) with a modern web interface and API. It lets you run one or many internet radio stations from a single Docker-based installation.

## Use cases
- start an internet radio station on my own server
- self-hosted icecast radio station management
- manage radio station playlists and media from a browser
- host multiple web radio stations on one server
- broadcast live from the browser with a web DJ
- embed a public radio player page on my website
- let listeners request songs via an API
- run a radio station on a cheap VPS

## When to choose
- you want a turnkey, self-hosted internet radio stack with a web UI
- you need multi-station management with user roles and permissions
- you want built-in public player pages, APIs, and listener requests
- you prefer Docker-based deployment with one-click VPS installers

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight single-purpose streaming server without a management UI
- you cannot run Docker or administer a Linux server
- you need broadcast-grade automation beyond what Liquidsoap provides
- you require a fully stable, non-beta release for mission-critical use
