Hi,

During the last week or so I finally changed over to broadband for my
connection. One of the things I have since started to explore is 'internet
radio'. However I haven't yet found much that is interesting. Wondering if
this is because I haven't yet looked in the right places, or if it isn't
present! :-)

My interest is in three areas of music.

1) 'Classical' music. By this I don't just mean clones of Classic FM. But
stations that are as likely to play Stravinsky or Britten as Beethoven or
Brahms.

2) 'Classical Indian'. Again, I don't just mean Ravi Shankar or Bangra.
:-) I am also interested in other forms of non-European 'classical' music
like those from the 'far east'.

3) Jazz. As with the above, with a decent range of content. Not just 'easy
listening' or 'MOR' under another name.

FWIW Since I don't use windows/mac/linux I can't access 'real audio' or
'wma' streams. So am looking for open formats based on mp3, etc.
Preferrably 192kbps or 128kbps to make the results worth hearing.

Anyone know of some good stations, or can point me to websites that list
them? Or don't they exist?...

Slainte,

Jim

Many thanks for the above! :-) Foillowing just a brief look at the above
sites I was able to get streams from stations like Bayern, Netherlands
Radio 4 Live, etc, at quite healthy datarates.

Not sure if my experience so far is a reliable guide. But yesterday I
seemed to have no problem getting reliable 192 or 256 kbps streams from
some european stations. Many more, now, to try... :-)

Wonder why my google searches failed to throw up the above addresses. I
felt sure some decent lists and stations must exist, but until you posted
the above I failed to track any down, with the single exception of the
rather obscure KUAT.

Slainte,

Jim
