radio stations

it seems like every radio station url i put into my radio doesnt work /sigh

anyone have some good working ones? rock/goth/alternative and hits would be nice maybe an 80's one or hair bans type one

just a few working url's i could putinto the config card would be nice

andyes ive looked this up went thru trying url's couldnt find working ones

Do you have access to a live linux cd .. The best way would be to fire up "StreamTuner" (with this app its easy to search for genre ,, even search by artist, then just copy the stream address. )then you can test the quality at your end , As all my streams are perfect with no skipping for me thats not to say they would be the same where you are.
I understand where youre coming from though the amount of times I go to an event and hear music skipping along merrily ... it does my head in and I usually leave .

There are probably ways in windows to get the same information I just remember it was much more difficult when I last did it .
Hers the script I use for my parcel media as I said all the stations stream fine for me just put it into a prim and you will have a menu driven tuner .

That's fantastic - thanks for those - the new age and classical were just what I was looking for for non-invasive/distracting streams.
