the above points that Cyrix mentioned, made my own radio shutdown for good.

the DJ software (sambc) costs 230 US dollars, would be like 180 euros.
The music should be like 1.30 euros each song. so if you have 3000 songs, multiply 3000 * 1.30 = aprox. 3900 euros..
so thats a one time investment of aprox. 4100 euros.

then the licenses.
You need a DJ license which costs 30 euros a month.

And then we need to apply our radio to the government royalties..
this is the calculation i got from them:

0,0001 euros each listener, each minute.
so if you'd say you got aprox. 10 listeners a day, your calculation would be:
0,0001 * 10 * 60 * 24 * 30 * 12 = 518.4 euros a year.
don't forget the DJ license: 30 * 12 = 360 euros a year

but the next problem is; when advertising outside LVP, we will get more than 10 listeners. so we also have to pay -more-.
this is just for a non-profit radio.. immagine the costs for a profitable radio.

anyone wanna pay aprox. 520 euros a year for the radio, and 360 euros a year for the dj license?..

so my opinnion; bad idea to advertise outside LVP. just due to the bills you'd get, and if we wouldn't pay, the high prosecutions of royalties companies etc. etc.
