StreamSera is free on WordPress.org and has everything you need to run a station on your website. StreamSera Pro is an add-on: you install it next to the free plugin and it unlocks extra features in the same screens. Your stations, players and settings stay as they are.
Quick answer#
- Choose Free if you want a good-looking live player with song titles, station pages and page-builder support.
- Choose Pro if you also want a show schedule, song requests, listening statistics, a sticky player that keeps playing across pages, playlists and podcasts, or more layouts and design options.
