While I sit here sipping beer and waiting for my first post to magically disappear, I’m rocking out to what might possibly be the best internet music solution around. It’s late, I’ve worked all day analyzing websites, so I have the melodic touches of Gamer’s Radio screaming Slipknot at me.
Live365 offers a wide variety of music streams, as well as talk radio and comedy. If you’re doing the free 33 hour test, like me, you put up with occasional ads, but they’re really not obnoxious. Something less than $50 a year gets you the VIP package - no ads, incredible variety of music. If you don’t want to rock out, you can groove to dozens of Jazz stations, or mellow with some Mozart, or, as I’ve been known to do, hit one of the 80’s stations for a dance party package with Bowie, Berlin, and BowWowWow. House, Acid, Lithuanian Clog Tunes - it’s all here.
If you have broadband, I think you’ll find that internet streaming radio beats the pants off of Napster, iTunes, or any other pay-as-you-go scam site. Check it out.
