reminds me of a onlione text rpg i used to play. they had a nifty radio setup with regular dj's (one slot being with the creators of the game), prize give aways and just generall radio chatter. oh and music.
may i suggest some kind of chat system on your website as i for one hate using IRC to chat, even if it's a simple irc linked java style applet kinda thingy (to be specific
)

Excellent idea
Make sure to have lots of prizes IG, it's the lifeblood of most stations. Check out http://www.eve-radio.com/ for an example of an excellent station.
Hopefully things run well for you!

Lol, I used to Dj on eve-radio, I diddnt like the way they ran things, me and MrBaggins had a couple of run-ins, I made suggestions, he diddnt like them, i tried to ask why, he said stfu.... etc.... and Stora was a cow to me (Is she still on there???) oh.. and and hows KP??
Ascension
It's a small word. I am happy I keep saying that about GW.
I love how they look, although I'm from afar. Who's Mr. Baggins, for one? From the little I've heard of St0ra, I've liked her. Really, I like a lot of the newer DJ's who play rock.
If you can, get in touch with me. I doubt I could be any use to you, but I would love to hear from you if you have time to just talk about things

I love the idea

Sounds good, looking forward to it 
Venenatus Ensis
those favor updates are sorely needed

Another suggestion is to advertise. Just post on every GW forum you can find.
People need to know the website address, the stream address and most probably a scedule of who and when things are going to be playing. (posibly with the different time zone times eg GMT, PST ect)

Kind of weird that’s one the thing that Guild Wars don’t have is some sort of audio communication, if you search on itunes for podcasts about WoW you get like 10 or so and podcasts about Guild Wars there is only one active is Guild Cast by Shawn (Good Job BTW) we need more audio for the Guild Wars community. (If my English was any good I would make one myself )
)
Cygnus_Zero
This is not a new idea. Check out Guildcast.com. It's a podcast but you can listen to it right on your computer if you dont have n iPod. They have 21 episodes so far. It's very informative and entertaining. Not trying to hijack the thread. Just sharing for those who are interested. I have absolutely nothing to do with GuildCast by the way.

btw, GuilWars Radio has been going since Sept 2005 - with testing, and planning, we did launch, but it was rushed, and our server sponsor pulled out in Dec 2005 - 
But were back, and launching April 21st ;P

sounds great fun

Phone ins and music would be great ideas, with like.. interviews with the top faces of PvP, and the live commentary you mentioned for regular shows. It'd be great to tune in while playing to grab the latest news without visiting the forums (and a greater variety of music than my 5 track playlist ^^)
leeky baby
im confused have u cleared this with A-net or will it be on a radio channel which we can listen to while playing?
will we be able to ring up?? or speak on our mics?
cool

ok...
at the moment, were doing some Server Maintenance, so the serever will be down for a few days, But it will be up in pleanty of time for the launch..
yes, we will have 'phone-ins', and chats via Vent or TS or whatever, we are hopefully going to have interviews with ppl from top guilds etc...
as for clearing with A-Net, we dont need to, since we wont be broadcasting any of thier content....

Weapon of Choice is by far the best Guild Wars radio.
http://guildwarsguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=132735
However, if you'd like to be competitive in the PvP GW Radio "scene," you're going to have to get on GameSurge. PM me if you're serious about doing anything related to the PvP side on the radio

Weapon Of Choice is a 1 off show, once per week, were going to be 24/7 once we launch, CONSTANT info and updates...
I dont want to compete with WoC, by no means, i encourage Every piece of community to go for thier own thing.... But theres nothing thats 24/7, and nothing that plans to give the information and things that we plan to..

Just saw this due to the post bump...
Never tuned in a year ago, but i'm guessing this isn't still being broadcast. What happened, just out of curiosity?

Guild Wars radio was not a success due to lack of community support, I had blessing from arena net and NCSoft at the time, but the community diddnt show enough interest despite intensive advertising, a full website etc...
im still interested in doing it, and im still in contact with ncsoft/arena net about this from time to time..
so if anyones still interested, let me know...

To be honest and I don't mean to be rude here but going to say it anyway. The reason it never caught on is probably because there is an infinite supply of free music on the internet, so anyone can pick anything they want to hear at any time instead of hearing random stuff being played... This is the same reason radio in general is hurting.. (gogo mp3 players) don't mean to be rude like I said..
