Personally, having compared using a computer for the iPlayer with a 'net

better results.


I find a bedside net radio easier to use (and more acceptable to my
better half) than a bedside computer. (She did complain that the Pure
Avanti Flow I use is rather large - and I must agree with her on that
point.)

Out of interest, which net radio(s) did you try?

The main advantage of a net radio for me is the availability of
foreign stations (like BR Klassik and France Musique) at reasonable
quality. (For the UK, DAB suffices - with satellite and a computer
with an outboard USB sound module for serious listening.)
