I found AzuraCast but it seems that it doesn't work wit FireFox and Safari, but only with chrome to listen to music, and the DJ is a bit weird to use. I also found BottledRadio but have no experience on how it works. Any other one you may know of or can advise how to solve/work with the ones above?

You don't really need a tool by itself, a few shell scripts should be enough.

I would use one shell script to loop through my song library and pipe data to some fifo.

Then you can read this fifo with ffmpeg and broadcast it somewhere.

The advantage of this approach is its flexible, easy to modify and you can use the tools you already have.

See https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/StreamingGuide

I'd like something on which we can put music on and when we want stop it and broadcast source coming from a mic, or even input from our choice, instead of automated playlist from a folder.

You can do that as well with scripts, easily. If you are looking for a GUI Version I can't help you.
