Why limit your radio listening to national and local stations when there’s
a whole world of radio on the Internet? Thousands of radio stations around the
world broadcast live to anyone with a fast connection to the Internet and the
software to receive streaming audio. Some low-budget stations have even switched
off their power-hungry transmitters and now broadcast solely on the Net.
The most widely used receiver software, RealAudio, is available from
http://www.real.com/. This miniature Web browser is preloaded with suggested
listening sites. Microsoft has its own streaming software package at
