Alternative radios on the web?

Question

Hi i live outside the U.S. the last time i was i san francisco and heard an awesome radio it was 95.7 can i play it on the web, or anybody know any alternative new music radios on the web! thanx!

Answer 1

It wasn't a Alternative rocker as it was a adult hits station.. Sort of like a top 40 without some of the rap as a regular CHR

go to Mike's radio world at http://mikesradioworld.com/ click on US, adult hits and pick a station.. Some don't broadcast to non US IP addresses , but you should be able to find a "local" adult hits formatted station online there

Answer 2

95.7 doesn't tell anybody anything, but there are a number of internet radio sites, plus another one that catalogues individual stations. Last.fm (that's the url :) ) is good because in addition to having limited radio streaming, it keeps track of the songs you listen to. There's slacker.com, which has a bunch of different stations based on genre, pandora.com, which suggest new songs based on what the ones you're listening to sound like, and a bunch of others, like jango.com. Also, shoutcast.com indexes a bunch of different "radio" stations from different websites.

Just gave this list to an ex-Pandora lover:

Although there are any number of alternate Internet stations to download or use to listen to their playlists or create your own.

I prefer iTunes, Windows Media Player or AOL because they are big companies that are not going to clutter up your computer (well, with the possible exception of AOL). They are all free and all offer an astounding array of choices.

The following sites will have live broadcasts or allow you to set up a custom station to your taste (below are download sites for internet players with lots of stations):
