SHOUTcast is cross-platform software for streaming media over the Internet. SHOUTcast Radio is a related web site which provides a directory of SHOUTcast servers. The software, developed by Nullsoft, allows digital audio content, primarily in MP3 or HE-AAC format, to be broadcast to and from media player software, enabling the creation of Internet radio "stations".

The most common use of SHOUTcast is for creating or listening to Internet audio broadcasts.
Some traditional radio stations use SHOUTcast to extend their presence onto the Web.

As of 2008, it is not unusual to see over 600,000 concurrent listeners during peak hours, according to SHOUTcast's self-reported statistics. The maximum and minimum number of listeners fluctuates widely during a day, with roughly three times the number of listeners during peak hours compared to low usage times. As of 2010, SHOUTcast Radio includes over 30,000 stations.
