Do you listen to Internet Radio, either while you work, or other?
Just curious... I've used Spinner for years, and now they have this new combo with Netscape... :-\
which one do you use? do you like it? which stations do you like to listen to?
I really want to know... :P

Nope, don't use it.... I have heard of spinner, but I have never used it.
Regular cds and/or radio work just fine :)

I don't like the commercials, plus local radio in this town sux IMHO...
CD's are tough, I don't generally like to listen to the same artist for an hour and a half... plus, former roommates/girlfriends have liberated multitudes of CD's from my collective prison... :P plus I like someone else to be pick <u>new</u> music...
My comp has a digital out, so I have it optically hooked up to the home theater system, so when I cook I like to have music on, and then when the guests arrive I can tune it to a station and leave it...kinda the same as DMX, if you know what that is...
why it works for me... as if anyone asked
:P

Sounds nice :)
My comp sucks.... probably couldn't handle the streaming audio without skipping it :(

again, gotta thank clients... :P
when they need you to do something, sometimes it is cheaper and quicker for them to buy you the card, instead of going to a full service design house.
a new digital sound card is only about $40... and my girlfriend has a 333 with 96 megs RAM, and it streams beautifully... I mean I'm impressed how good it looks, and sounds. =) (she has a built in sound card which we have hooked up to comp speakers)

Hey I remember someone said here he could listen the radio with Flash... Was it Bezzer? Can't remember :-\ but it seems doable...
