I love music! I bought my husband a new TV for his birthday last year. It is WIFI ready. I set up my pandora so I can listen to it on the TV or on my computer. I love Pandora. I make my own stations with music I want to listen too without all the stuff I don't like.

I have to say that I don't. If I want to listen to music while I am on here, I go to the site that I can rate songs for points and turn them in for a reward.

Yes I love to listen to music and the very best is the ones you make up on your own. I prefer my own things and its a wide variety of music to the ones on the radio. I dont like all the talking and the repeats on the songs. So I am always making music.

I have not ever done this. It sounds like it would be fun to do. A WIFI ready television, how cool. I just do not listen to much except the local station. I do sometimes listen to it online when I am on the computer.

No, it breaks up too much! You can't enjoy anything when it stops and starts so much. I don't understand why. Internet TV is actually better than radio most of the time. Are they trying to push too much "quality" out, because it just doesn't work!
And there's a salesman's phrase if ever there was one! WIFI ready! What does that mean? WiFi isn't ready and probably never will be. Cables still give you your internet at least twice as fast as WiFi.

I generally listen to an online radio, but is a radio station from a friend. The only bad aspect about his radio, is that the radio only broadcasts when he has free time, that is one or two times a week.
He has an established broadcast schedule, but sometimes he change it for any problem he has.
I also listen to another online radio. It's a radio from my country, that also broadcasts online, so it's better for me to listen online than turning on the stereo.

I love internet radio. There are two main stations that I listen to.
1) CKWR.com CKWR is a Kitchener station, only 20 miles from here, but it's a very small station, community radio, and my apartment is in the basement, so the only way I get it is on line. All my favourite multi-cultural radio shows are on that station, so I listen to them on line. At home on my computer, at the cafe on my iPod with wi-fi, and if I get out of church late, I use my iPhone's data plan to listen to the first few minutes of one of them on the way home. LOL
The second one is bbcworldservice.com The Guelph community radio station runs the BBC World Service at night and I listen, but then they stop it around 7 AM. If I wake up early, and local radio's back on, but I still want to listen to the BBC, then I'll tune in on my computer, or iPod.

Hi! I listen to internet radio. I only listen to one station because it has the type of music I like. It's an actual radio station in California and is available not only through the internet but through local radio too. I either go to their official site or visit radiotime.com which has various radio stations all over the world.
