What is the cheapest way to get streaming radio?

Posted by admin on May 14th, 2010 and filed under radio | 2 Comments »

I live in a remote rural area with no radio reception. I do have internet however, and since there are many stations streaming online, I could connect with a "whole house transmitter" which would rebroadcast the station so that I could receive it with various radios in the house. My question is: What is the best way to get a continuous streaming signal, 24/7? I don’t want to but a computer to use solely for this task, and most of the internet radios that I have read about don’t have good reviews. Any Ideas?

theres a great media player out there that i use called Winamp and one of the things it has is an internet radio streaming function, it has AOL radio and Shoutcast radio and both have tons of stations to choose from, i prefer AOL radio because it comes with a lot more channel options.

place to download is winamp.com
its completely free and its a rather small program

    get sirus satellite radio you pick what you listen 2 its like 15 bucks a month. or you could stream Pandora like i do and you type in a band or song you like and it will play songs similar to it. Dont like a song hit the thumbs down and it will not play it again, hit the thumbs up if you like a song. there is a 30sec ad every hour maybe but you can only get 40 free hours a month unless you want to pay for it.
