I always knew about radio streaming but I never bothered with it until yesterday when I had discovered a lot of wonderful music I could listen to by streaming on iTunes. One could listen to all kinds of music and since I prefer classical that is what I chose. I listened to an all Beethoven station yesterday and today, it is Mozart and right now I am listening to a selection from his motet EXSULTATE JUBILATE and it is wonderful. Up until now, I have been listening to music off my IPod Classic that I had stored all of my classical CDs as well as other genres of music when I do Photoshop post production work on my Mac computer. The Mozart station I am tuned in today is called Radio Mozart and seem be European based in France and it is great. There are no commercials except station identification in French and program announcements from time to time in English.

If you have Wi-Fi in your house, you can get a radio which can tune into the internet streamed stations. You would not even need to have your computer on.

I keep forgetting iTunes has streaming channels within the program (which is what Claude is actually referring to). I need to look at that again.

This is the 3rd day I am listening to music streams on iTunes and today it is KHPR, my local public radio station here in Honolulu. It is a wonderful station and I have been supporting them with a monthly contribution for years as a 'Life Member'.

We use Delicast.com Hundreds of TV and radio from around the world. It also streams a station in Graz, Austria 24 hours per day which I then rebroadcast on 97.1. Wife speaks a version of German that is normal in Graz. Louis
