Oe of my favorites is http://www.sky/fm/[many substream URL's]. Thanks for thhe Guide, Nikolas! Another thing I've been wondering about is xmms-faad2 which is mp4 or a High Effiency decoder of "aac"(?) streams that only require 24kpbs to yeild fairly high fidelity sound. Does anybody know anything about how xmms-faad2 works with good ol' xmms?? (I'm completely new to most of this--streaming sites. But then just got new speakers w/bass boombox!) So any tips will be very welcome. gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
