Of course, I say that as a webcaster, but still....

1. I'm with you!
I can't get reception worth a damn in the building where I work so internet radio is the way to go for me. I listen to NPR, Minnesota Public Radio, Randi Rhodes, Mike Malloy, etc. while doing mindless tasks at work. I think webcasting is one of the best things to come out of the internet!

2. Ahhh, a completely unbiased opinion!
That said, I actually agree with you. Links to "your" stations?

3. I must agree
I'm sitting here in Iowa listening my favorite station, KPFA from Berkeley, California. When I lived in Davis, California I couldn't get KPFA.

Only problem is the timezone difference. When I listen to KPFA, I start staying up later at night...........

4. I listen via the 'net at home sometimes, but at work...
...the bandwith police always stop me. :-(

I'm thinking about Sirius (XM is partially owned by Clear Channel), but when I move offices, I might not be close enough to a window to use it at work. Bleh...

5. iTunes is all I need. Listening to "GrooveSalad" is my fave.

10. KEXP is the best
I listen to it all the time. Of course I am in Seattle so I don't use the internet streaming very often. John in the Morning's show is awesome.
