    I think it's a good idea to add iCal for scheduled shows. That way the dj can be informed/reminded for the upcoming shows or even better , listeners can keep track when their favorite dj  will have the next show.
    Dj's can add iCal from within Airtime (myairtime.com/Schedule) , while listeners can make use of it from the widgets.

    Just planting seeds :)

    I have written a basic php export script that will build an ics file from the airtime calendar. One issue, which i haven't bothered addressing is, if you change the time of a show (in airtime), and have already populated an ical calendar, you'll get an extra event (the old event) you'll need to remove. Each event exported creates a uid based on a time stamp, so changing the time of a show will cause incorrect duplicates on some import systems (if they don't check for overlaps or removals).

    I'm also pulling the airtime color, but i'm not exporting that info.

    Enjoy!

    EDIT: Also, changing your server IP will change the UID of each event. You could just make @ a specific IP or something like an email.
