Internet radio stations that sound really good


There are 3 I have found whose sound quality stands out.

Bartok Radio Budapest, classical channel which broadcasts at 256 kbps mp3.

Big Blue Radio, 128 kbps AAC+ laid back classic rock channel. You can get the stream off of Shoutcast.com without having to register with their web site.

Great Radio, 160 kbps mp3. Classic rock that rocks. I can only find them at Shoutcast.com. They sound awfully good for 160 kbps mp3.

No-regrets, TSF Jazz was one of the "staff picks" on my Squeezebox, which is how I access it. I've never tried to access it via computer, so I can't help there. Keep trying though, its a great station.
BLUEBEAT.COM OMG! Go there.
Be sure to turn off the equalizer and turn on the SRS then adjust to a low level.
Seems to need a recent version of windows media player (gross)
and needs to play through explorer browser (gross).
Interface is not user friendly- but the hassle is worth it.
302kbs and every damn album or playlist you could think up.
Shweet.

Great thread you guys! Does anyone know of a favorite Mali or related radio station. Rhapsody does pretty well, but just wondering if there's something really great out there that I am unaware of in this genre.

Something I've discovered about Shoutcast streams - the bookmarks that you create from Shoutcast's listen links on Shoutcast's site or Winamp's "Shoutcast Radio" tab do not last last. If you want to create bookmarks in Winamp that are durable you must do this from listen links off the radio channel's web site.

Some channels are smart enough to put their site URL in their metadata, so that you can click on it in the metadata display at the top of Winamp and bring up their site in Winamp's web browser. Then you can click on the listen links in Winamp's browser and create bookmarks from there.

Bartok Radio, which is 320 kbps mp3, and can be found easily in Shoutcast's stream directory, has a wimpy web site with listen links that only work with Real Player. This means any bookmark you create for the site will last a day at most. You will need to look it up in Shoutcast's directory just about every time you want to listen to it.
