New wave in radio?

Filed under: Just in Time

I’ve discoverd an alternative to my mp3 player at work : Internet Radio!! This is an intersesting little beast, you see, cause there are lots of different channels to choose from, if you know how to find them. At first i didnt, so i basically did google searches for internet radio and turned up a bunch of random places. For the most part this sucked cause while i found music i liked, they never seemed to play more than 1 mvmt of a piece at a time (quite possibly one of the most frustrating things EVER).

That is, of course, until munie told me about live365 - a fairly conveniant site for internet radio listening. They actually played stuff all the way through! And dvorak’s cello concerto was like the 2nd song i heard on this station (it was one of the pieces i had in mind when choosing which particular channel to listen to (it was actually kinda not good, cause I was really thirsty, but couldn’t leave my desk and miss out on the music…))!!

Of course, the sound quality DOES leave something to be desired. But hey, that’s the price you pay for variety. And the nice thing about not being able to see the days playlist is that I never feel bad about leaving my desk and missing stuff. If I could see the list, then I would never leave cause I wouldn’t want to miss the good stuff coming!
