iSelector is a Personal Online Player that streams a unique program to each listener. It is the world's first interactive player.

Listeners can: "Skip", "Rest", "Play More" or "Play Less" the songs or artists on Personal Player. Each listener hears a unique stream or playlist of songs that has been customized to their tastes.

iSelector creates a history for each listener. So, when they return to the player, their previous choices are remembered. This will affect how the programming will be created for them.

Yes, In the USA, one needs to have a specific agreement with each record company in order to comply with the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act). Outside of the US, please consult your local RCS office for advice on how to proceed.

The iSelector system uses the songs, rules and basic clocks from your station's Selector database. This creates the baseline playlist library that every listener will get before they interact with the player. Stations simply upload their Selector backup to RCS.

The listener can click the "Skip" button. If they want to hear all songs by the artist, less often than played, click the "Play This Artist Less Often" button. The next time the artist plays, they can cut it even more by clicking the button again.

The player will skip the song and advance to the next event.

This means you previously boosted (+1 to +9) or reduce (-1 to -9) the play of the song or artist. You can increment this number by one each time the song/artist plays.

The higher the positive number, the more frequently the song/artist will play. The lower the negative number, the less often it will play. If the amount is zero, no indication will appear.

You may provide different "flavors" of your station format if you like. Listeners click  the drop-down list to select one of these flavors. iSelector creates these format variations from your main database, potentially pulling music from alternate categories or altering the rules and filters used for the main channel. Flavors can be created for musical sub-genres, Christmas music, or any other music flow your database can supply.

It displays the last 20 songs your listener played.
