When a stream is showing how people are on and how many people can be supported, does this include people listening on the stand alone player?

What do you mean stand alone player? If you are referring to programs such as Winamp, Quicktime, Windows Media Player, etc. then yes it does count. Each person that is listening to the streams is "linked" to the servers. One of the spots on the server is taken up by that player.

I'm talking about the Sub Sonic player program that you download from our web site. The one that connects to Sub Sonic all on it's own without having to be on Sub Sonic.

ravenscroft, he's talking about the player eagle4life made.

Jacca, yes, it does show those people. The standalone player still connects to a shoutcast stream.

Thank You!
